    Identification of acid-tolerant coffee genotypes in a coffee germplasm collection of Colombia
    (Editora UFLA, 2020) Acuña-Zornosa, Ricardo; Sadeghian-Khalajabadi, Siavosh
    One of the limitations of coffee production in many regions of Colombia is the soil acidity. According to historical soil chemical analysis records, more than 50% of coffee farms have pH values below 5.0. Because acid-tolerant coffee varieties are not available, farmers use calcareous additives to correct the problem, which incurs associated labor and input costs. The objective of this work was to identify acid-tolerant genotypes of Coffea arabica. For two contrasting soils in the coffee-growing area of Colombia (Andisol and Entisol), the effect of soil acidity on the growth of 20 genotypes of Coffea Arabica during the seedling stage was evaluated. The genotypes were wild accessions that make up the Colombian Coffee Germplasm Collection and the Castillo ® Naranjal Variety, used as commercial material. Six months after the seedlings were transplanted into soils treated with or without acidity correction additives, the weight of the dry matter of the roots, stems and leaves was recorded. Later, the acid-tolerant genotypes were identified by means of the quadrant method and the tolerance index. The Timor Hybrid and Rume Sudan genotypes were identified as tolerant of the acidity of the two soil types. These genotypes could be used as progenitors in a coffee breeding program leading to a commercial coffee variety tolerant to soil acidity.

    Classification, physicochemical, soil fertility, and relationship to Coffee robusta yield in soil map unit selected
    (Editora UFLA, 2020) Marbun, Posma; Nasution, Zulkifli; Hanum, Hamidah; Karim, Abubakar
    The research was aimed to classify, characterize the physicochemical properties, determine the fertility of the soil, and to obtain the relationship of soil fertility on the character yield for Coffee robusta in the 10 units of the soil map (SMUs) selected. This research was conducted in Silima Pungga-Pungga sub-District, Dairi District, North Sumatra Province, Indonesia from July 2014 to June 2017. This research was conducted by overlay the maps, classifying soil profiles, characterizing soil, soil fertility assessing, and regression analysis of soil fertility with the yield for Coffee robusta using IBM SPSS Statistics v.20 software. The result showed the ten from 18 SMUs selected for Coffee robusta had the highest area in sequentially, namely SMU 11, 14, and 1. Based on the ten SMUs selected, found in two representative soil profiles, include the profile 1 (SMU 1, 2, 8, 9, 11, 13, 14, 16, 18) covering an area of 1,703.30 ha with the inceptisol and profile 10 (SMU 10) covering an area of 176.81 ha with the entisol. Inceptisol has greater thesoil physicochemical properties compared to entisol from ten SMUs selected for Coffee robusta. The effect of cation exchange capacity, base saturation, P-total, K-total, and C-organic have significantly increased the productivity of Coffee robusta by 89.30%. However, the effect was not significant to the 100 grains of dry weight.
