This study molecularly characterized Coffea canephora using microsatellite markers, revealing a high level of polymorphism and genetic diversity in the population, making it suitable for breeding efforts.
The genus Coffea comprises more than 100 species, of which the most commercially important are Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora. The latter is a self-incompatible plant with high natural genetic variability. The detection of polymorphism at the DNA level by molecular markers allowed significant progress with the selection of superior plants. The objective of this study was the molecular characterization of C. canephora using microsatellite markers. To this end, a population of forty-four C. canephora genotypes and one C. arabica genotype, was evaluated with 21 primers. These primers identified 61 alleles in the population and between 2 and 5 alleles per locus. The information index indicated a high level of polymorphism of the analyzed markers. According to the observed and expected heterozygosity, the genetic diversity in the population is high. The overall inbreeding coefficient of the population detected high heterozygosity and zero inbreeding within this population. Genetic diversity among the accessions was also evaluated by the unweighted pair-group method based on arithmetic averages (UPGMA). Six groups were formed based on Mojena's cutting rule and three using the Bayesian approach. These results confirmed the existence of genetic diversity, genetic variability and a potential for selection in future breeding efforts involving the 45 genotypes studied.
