The coffee genome provides insight into the convergent evolution of caffeine biosynthesis

Lorenzo Carretero-Paulet, +69 more
- 05 Sep 2014 - 
TL;DR: The Coffea canephora (coffee) genome was sequenced and identified a conserved gene order, and comparative analyses of caffeine NMTs demonstrate that these genes expanded through sequential tandem duplications independently of genes from cacao and tea, suggesting that caffeine in eudicots is of polyphyletic origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular characterisation and origin of the Coffea arabica L. genome.

TL;DR: Results clearly suggest that C. arabica is an amphidiploid formed by hybridisation between C. eugenioides and C. canephora, or ecotypes related to these diploid species, and indicate low divergence between the two constituent genomes of C. Arabica.
Journal ArticleDOI

The origin of cultivated Coffea arabica L. varieties revealed by AFLP and SSR markers

TL;DR: Polymorphism among the subspontaneous accessions was much higher than among the cultivated accessions, confirming the historical documentation on their dissemination of C. arabica from its primary centre of diversity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coffee resistance to the main diseases: leaf rust and coffee berry disease

TL;DR: A view of the research progress on coffee leaf rust and CBD concerned with the pathogens infection and variability, coffee breeding for resistance and coffee resistance mechanisms is given.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic diversity of wild coffee (Coffea arabica L.) using molecular markers

TL;DR: The results supported the hypothesis that southwestern Ethiopian coffee trees could have been introduced recently in the south and southeast, and appeared little differentiated from wild coffee growing in the southwest.
