The biosynthesis of aroma compounds in cocoa beans is complex and its study involves many disciplines. This scientific publication uses molecular genetics to characterize the many genes involved in the biosynthetic pathways of the "fruity" type aroma compounds, which are very characteristic of the Nacional cocoa variety grown in Ecuador. These new elements can be used in the framework of selection programs for aromatic cocoa varieties, which are more profitable for small cocoa producers.

Ganoderma boninense causes Stipe Basal Rot, the major threat to oil palm cultivation in Southeast Asia and spreading to Africa. Based on ten years of data acquired in the breeding program, we have identified carrier regions of resistance to this disease in genetic backgrounds that will accelerate the breeding of resistant varieties.
