Coffee, Volume 112 gives the latest updates on one of the premier global traded commodities. With its annual income of approx. USD 200 billion, it supports the livelihoods of nearly 25 million smallholder farmers. In this updated edition, chapters cover The history and genetic diversity of arabica coffee, The importance of wild coffee species in a scenario of climate changes, Coffee plant architecture, Water and heat constraints to coffee ecophysiology and production, The impacts of irradiance on coffee growth and ecophysiology in a context of climate changes, Omic technologies contribution to unveil coffee resilience responses to climate changes, and much more.
Additional chapters delve into Agroforestry as an alternative management system to improve coffee crop sustainability and bean quality, Could breeding of new arabica coffee varieties be a response to the climate change?, Selection, development, and management of robusta coffee genotypes under a climate change perspective, Grafting coffee for productivity and health during a changing climate, Coffee somatic embryogenesis: advances, limitations, and perspectives for mass propagation, and many other topics.
