Evaluation of the bean qualities of cocoa clones after propagated from somatic embryogenesis culture

A series of field experiments were conducted to assess the bean qualities of elite cocoa clones (KKM4, KKM22, MCBC1, and PBC230) after regenerated through somatic embryogenesis culture and grafting. The bean of all clones was morphologically and physically evaluated before quantified for the physioc...
