GENETIC, PHENOTYPIC AND PHYLOGEOGRAPHICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF LIBERICA COFFEE
REFNo: A294ES
1) To understand the genetic diversity of Liberica coffee (across its natural range and in cultivation), and its correspondence to physical features (morphology), chemistry (data already available) and sensory characteristics (some data already available).
2) Elucidate patterns of genetic diversity across cultivated and wild C. liberica in Uganda.
3) Place cultivated Ugandan genotypes within a country-wide and African-wide perspective. In particular we will focus on the origin of farmed Liberica in Uganda: to ascertain whether they are from an indigenous source (i.e. one of the two forest locations in Uganda where this species has been recorded), or not. Farmers in Uganda say that this coffee travelled with previous generations from the forest. National and regional identity will be an asset for the marketing and development of Liberica-excelsa (kisansa coffee).
4) Propose a new, and much-needed, intraspecific classification for C. liberica.
