Genetic Diversity in Coffea canephora Genotypes via Digital Phenotyping
2025
Overview
C. canephora exhibits high genetic variability, and to estimate this variability, morphological descriptors associated with coffee quality are used. Bean size is a physical trait of great importance for coffee classification. Manual classification is known to be inaccurate and time-consuming, which is why researchers have adopted digital imaging techniques to improve classification efficiency. The objective of this study was to quantify the genetic diversity in 43 C. canephora clones using the Ward-MLM strategy and to estimate genetic parameters and correlations from digital phenotyping of beans and cherries. The experiment was conducted on a crop consisting of 43 C. canephora genotypes, where the cherries were manually pulped and dried until they reached 12% moisture content. Using GroundEye® equipment, four replicates of 50 beans and cherries were evaluated for each treatment, and the software generated spreadsheets with the results of the geometric traits. To determine the existence of genetic variability among the genotypes, the data obtained were subjected to analysis of variance, estimation of genetic parameters, Ward-MLM analysis, and Pearson correlation. The genotypic variance was higher than the environmental variance for all variables analyzed, both for beans and cherries, indicating that the genotypes evaluated have high genetic variability. The greatest genetic distance was observed between groups I and IV, suggesting favorable conditions for crosses between the genotypes of these groups. Phenotypic correlation analysis revealed significant positive and negative correlations between the variables. Digital seed analysis successfully detected genetic divergence among the 43 C. canephora clones. The variables ‘area’, ‘maximum diameter’, and ‘minimum diameter’ are the most suitable for selecting genotypes with larger beans.
