    Repeatability and number of harvests required for selection in robusta coffee
    (Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2004) Fonseca, Aymbiré Francisco Almeida da; Sediyama, Tocio; Cruz, Cosme Damião; Sakiyama, Ney Sussumu; Ferrão, Romário Gava; Ferrão, Maria Amélia Gava; Bragança, Scheilla Marina
    This study aimed to estimate the repeatability coefficient of the grain yield in Coffea canephora by three methods: to quantify the precision of the measurements; to predict the real value of an individual based on n evaluations; and to determine the number of phenotypic measures required in each plant to obtain an adequate precision level for an efficient discrimination of the genotypes. The coefficients of repeatability and determination were estimated based on four harvests of 80 genotypes. Highest estimates of the repeatability coefficient were obtained by the method of the principal components derived from the matrix of covariances, which expresses the correlation between each measurement pair. The prediction precision of the real individual value ranged from 65.32 to 81.59%, and remained practically unchanged from the sixth harvest on.

    Discriminant analysis for the classification and clustering of robusta coffee genotypes
    (Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2004-07-07) Fonseca, Aymbiré Francisco Almeida da; Sediyama, Tocio; Cruz, Cosme Damião; Sakiyama, Ney Sussumu; Ferrão, Romário Gava; Ferrão, Maria Amélia Gava; Bragança, Scheilla Marina
    This study evaluated the adequacy of the composition of three clonal Coffea canephora varieties recommended for the State of Espírito Santo by a multivariate method designated discriminant analysis. This method consists in the establishment of functions that enable the classification of a given individual into one, among various distinct populations, reducing the probability of a misclassification. It simultaneously considers measures of several traits, in order to give the new variety homogeneity. The original classification of genotypes in the three studied varieties, based on agronomical criteria, maintained expressive concordance with the results of the discriminant analysis, with an apparent deviation rate of only 6.25%. Corrected discriminant functions were also proposed, capable of classifying a new genotype into one of the three clonal varieties to be used in improvement programs, eliminating the subjectivity of the clustering process.

    Effective population size and genetic gain expected in a population of Coffea canephora
    (Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2019-01) Mistro, Júlio César; Resende, Marcos Deon Vilela de; Fazuoli, Luiz Carlos; Vencovsky, Roland
    This work aimed to study the effective population size and genetic gain in a population of robusta coffee (Coffea canephora Pierre) and verify the possibility of using recurrent selection. The experiment comprised 25 treatments,consisting of 21 C. canephora progenies and four C. arabica (cultivars) grownin Brazil. The experimental design was a 5x5 quadruple balanced lattice, with 24 replications, with one plant per plot. Six harvests were performed in each plant. Statistical analysis was carried out using the mixed model methodology. The analysis showed high additive genetic variability, and the magnitude of the additive components prevailed over that of the dominance components. These facts revealed the plant population liability to undergo recurrent selec- tion, whose expected genetic gains were high. Results suggest that the effective population size and inbreeding degree throughout recurrent selection cycles be monitored. During selective cycles, cloning with weak selection is required due to few progenies. Remove selected

    Molecular diversity in Coffea canephora germplasm conserved and cultivated in Brazil
    (Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2013-12) Souza, Flávio de França; Caixeta, Eveline Teixeira; Ferrão, Luís Felipe Ventorim; Pena, Guilherme Ferreira; Sakiyama, Ney Sussumu; Zambolim, Eunize Maciel; Zambolim, Laércio; Cruz, Cosme Damião
    This work aimed to characterize accessions that represent the C. canephora germplasm conserved and cultivated in Brazil. A total of 130 accessions from germplasm banks of IAC (São Paulo), UFV (Minas Gerais) and also collected in plantations of the State of Espírito Santo and Rondônia were evaluated with a set of 20 new microsatellite primers. Multivariate methods were used to estimate the relationship among the accessions. High level of polymorphism and two major diversity clusters were identified. First cluster was composed by the accessions conserved in the IAC and UFV collections and the second was formed by accessions collected in areas under cultivation. Accessions from Espírito Santo and Rondônia were clear separated, composing two subclusters. Despite the great polymorphism found in Brazilian plantations, the diversity may be increased, because a new threshold in the genetic gains is expected on breeding programs with the intensification of the use of conserved germplasm
