Getu B., Bayetta B., Habtamu Z., Labouisse J.P., Davrieux F., Bertrand B.. 2008. In : 22nd International Conference on Coffee Science. Montpellier : ASIC, p. 604-607. International Conference on Coffee Science. 22, 2008-09-14/2008-09-19, Campinas (Brésil).

Coffee quality is a complex trait that is influenced and determined by genetic, environment and genetic x environment interaction that finally defines both physical, organoleptic and bean biochemical composition quality profile of any ones coffee origin. Genotypic and environmental variations were the main factors that played a great role in the variation of bean biochemical composition quality profile. Organoleptic quality attributes variation was accounted for genetic, environment and genetic x environment interaction in this study. Therefore the presence of strong genotype x environment interaction for arabica coffee quality, limits development of wide adapting varieties, initiates coffee quality mapping, conservation of coffee genetic resources and establishment of core collections with respective origins.
