Relationship Between Physiological Characteristic and Bean Quality on Some Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) Clones

摘要: Photosynthesis is one of the physiological processes that influences bean quality and this process related with effectiveness stomata characters chlorophyll content in leaves. The research was aimed to study relationship between some characteristics on cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) clones. conducted at Kaliwining Research Station, Indonesian Coffee Cocoa Institute. Design experiment randomized complete block design consisted six clones as treatment were Sulawesi 01, 02, Sca 6, ICS 60, TSH 858, ICCRI 03, PA 300. Each replicated three times. Stomata diffusion resistance, transpiration, a, b, total (a+b), number weight observed. results showed difference found tested. Transpiration rate not significantly different those 01 highest a 60 03 higher b than other Chlorophyll (a+b) positively influence weight. had negatively per pod, otherhand, it high genetic variance, phenotypic variance estimated value heritability. moderate could be used selection criteria based correlation, heritability which would give opportunity process.
