This paper focuses on determining a reduced number of morphological criteria for the differentiation of the five clones (GT 1, PB 217, IRCA 41, 230 and IRCA 331) recommended in Côte d'Ivoire. The general objective is to avoid the clonal mixtures observed in the graft wood garden (GWG) of rubber, which is used to graft planting material used by planters. These clones have been described in two GWG using 27 morphological criteria around the world. For each clone, the description looked at 25 healthy plants of three or four shape of the leaf floors clonal compliance. This was confirmed using microsatellite molecular markers. The results showed that six criteria made it possible to clearly differentiate these five clones: colour of the leaves, the cross-section of the central leaflet, the shape of the leaf floors, the nectariferous glands, the length and orientation of the central petolule. The GT 1 clone is identified by the dark green colour of the leaves and a long petiolule ( 1,4 cm), the PB 217 clone by light green leaves with short petiolule (0.9 cm), and the IRCA 331 clone by a conical shape of the leaf floors, straight petiolules, and flat central leaflets. The IRCA 230 and IRCA 41 clones are distinguished by the abundant and infrequent nectariferous glands, respectively. This investigation should be carried out in other localities with the aim of testing the stability of these six criteria in space and time.
