    Prediction of selection gains in Coffea canephora based on factorial scores
    (Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2004) Ferreira, Adésio; Cecon, Paulo Roberto; Cruz, Cosme Damião; Ferrão, Romário Gava; Silva, Marcia Flores da; Fonseca, Aymbiré Francisco Almeida da; Ferrão, Maria Amélia Gava
    The technique of factor analysis in the simultaneous selection of traits and prediction of genetic gains was evaluated in Coffea canephora var. conilon. Fourteen traits in 40 assessed genotypes were evaluated at two sites. The technique was used aiming at the structuring and simplification of the data, without information loss and with biological interpretation. The experimental design was of randomized blocks in four replications, each plot containing two useful plants. The technique was efficient for the data simplification and structuring. Moreover, the estimates of the predicted gains in the traits involved in the factors showed magnitude near the direct selection gain, attesting the suitability of the technique and its use in improvement programs of the species.

    Grafted young coffee tree growth in a greenhouse
    (Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2002) Sakiyama, Ney Sussumu; Tomaz, Marcelo Antonio; Martinez, Hermínia Emília Pietro; Pereira, Antonio Alves; Zambolim, Laércio; Cruz, Cosme Damião
    Grafted young coffee trees were observed in a greenhouse to study the effect of different scions and rootstocks on plant growth. Four Coffea arabica L. genotypes were used as scions: the cultivars Catuaí Vermelho IAC 15 and Oeiras MG 6851, and the progenies H 419-10-3-1-5 and H 514-5-5-3. They were also used as nongrafted control plants. Four genotypes were used as rootstocks: ‘Apoatã IAC 2258’ (C. canephora), ‘Conillon’ (C. canephora), ‘Emcapa 8141’ (C. canephora), and ‘Mundo Novo IAC 376-4’ (C. arabica). ‘Mundo Novo IAC 376-4’ and ‘Apoatã IAC 2258’ were classified as good rootstocks, while ‘Oeiras MG 6851’ and “H 419- 10-3-1-5” performed well as non-grafted plants. The diallel analysis statistical model was efficient to evaluate the general combination ability of the rootstocks and, therefore, recommended for rootstock selection procedures in breeding programs.
