An annotated taxonomic conspectus of the genus Coffea (Rubiaceae) (2006, background): “Nevertheless, in cultivation, spontaneous interspecific hybrids have been reported (e.g. Lashermes et al., 2000), and this species can be crossed with most other diploid (2n = 22) species.”
Current status of coffee (Coffea arabica L.) genetic resources in Ethiopia: implications for conservation (2008, background): “Coffea arabica species is characterized by a low molecular polymorphism, which is attributable to its allotetraploid origin, reproductive biology and evolution (Lashermes et al. 2000).”
Genetics of coffee quality (2006, background): “J. Plant Physiol., 18(1):229-242, 2006 T. LEROY et al. However, to be more effective and avoid undesirable introgressed fragments suspected of having a negative effect on BQ, selection could be assisted by specific markers of resistance to pests/diseases (Lashermes et al., 2000b).”
Identification of molecular markers linked to a gene conferring resistance to coffee berry disease (Colletotrichum kahawae) in Coffea arabica (2008, methodology): “AFLP analysis was done following the protocol of Vos et al. (1995) as adopted by Lashermes et al. (2000a) for coffee.”
