Item Multi-trait selection and the relationship between sensory analysis and post-harvest variables in Coffea arabica(Escola Superior de Agricultura "Luiz de Queiroz", 2025-11-21) Moreira, Daniele Birck; Silva, Sabrina Alves da; Costa, Weverton Gomes da; Caixeta, Eveline Teixeira; Nascimento, Moysés; Good God, Pedro Ivo VieiraWe aimed to estimate genetic parameters and multivariate selection in coffee related to quality and postharvest practices. In a population of 59 progeny of Coffea arabica, we analyzed the most important traits related to quality. Our analysis reveals significant genetic variance in all traits. We examined the effectiveness of direct selection and multivariate genetic gain using factor analysis. Our results suggest that genetic gains are achievable by all traits, although to varying degrees. In particular, selection based on the sensory quality factor alone can lead to gains opposite to those desired for traits such as ripening uniformity, bean size, and yield. This result may be due mainly to the way postharvest variables are processed for the standard Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA) beverage quality tests. Therefore, under this scenario, selection using factor analysis must be applied with care. These results provide a basis for future genetic selection strategies that will improve the quality of coffee.Item Sensory quality of Coffea arabica L. genotypes influenced by postharvest processing(Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2019) Barbosa, Ivan de Paiva; Oliveira, Antonio Carlos Baião de; Rosado, Renato Domiciano Silva; Sakiyama, Ney Sussumu; Cruz, Cosme Damião; Pereira, Antônio AlvesThe specialty coffee market has grown significantly in the past decades and has several cultivars with productive potential. The objective of this study was to evaluate the sensory profile of the beverage produced from Coffea arabica L. genotypes based on postharvest processing and to identify cultivars with the greatest genetic potential for coffee cultivation in the city of Araponga, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The experiment was a randomized complete block design with two replicates and 11 genotypes with different levels of resistance to rust. The sensory profile demonstrated an interaction between the genotype and the processing technique. Five of the genotypes presented total scores above 85 points according to the SCAA protocol. Moreover, two of these genotypes yielded heightened sensory notes after undergoing dry processing. The selection of coffee genotypes should consider the level of technology involved in the drying of the coffee beans, which preserves the potential quality of the beverage.
