Frecuencia de café caracolillo en plantas provenientes de semillas irradiadas
When doing a genetic analysis of coffee plants from neutron and X-ray irradiated seed, it was found that peaberry percent increased with radiation dose applied. The response for neutron irradiated plants was linear whereas for the X-ray treatments it was exponential. This suggests that the high frecuency of peaberries obtained from irradiated plants is due to chromosomal aberrations that cause gamete elimination and thus, a high production of one seeded fruits
