“…The use of differentiation procedures based on molecular markers will benefit future identifications of already described cultivars, indispensable for the protection of clones, with speed and practice. The use of 1997, Grant et al 2001, Róldan-Ruiz et al 2001. Róldan-Ruiz et al (2001) suggest that such disparities should not just be understood as a result of different methodologies, since the morphological divergence is not necessarily a function of genetic differences; different gene pools can be manipulated to generate similar phenotypes.…”

-The identification of cacao cultivars is crucial now that new cacao clones are available to producers. We compared the efficiency of the RAPD markers in relation to yield components for the discrimination of five cultivars ('Maranhão', 'Pará', 'Parazinho', the open-pollinated 'ICS 1', and the commercial hybrid mixture). Three yield components evaluated over 10 years and 182 polymorphic bands were scored for genetic distances and multidimensional scaling analyses. We found a close relationship between the genetic distance (GD) of RAPD data and Mahalanobis distance (MD) of yield component data, and between the biplots of GD and MD

One of the poorly recognized plant species well adapted to cultivation in temperate climate conditions is Lavatera thuringiaca L. It is a common species in Europe, but so far has not found much economic use. Few literature data report its high production potential, favorable chemical composition of biomass, resistance to adverse stress conditions, and medicinal properties. The biomass can be used for fodder and energy purposes and as forage for bees and other pollinators. L. thuringiaca can also be useful for the management of fallow soils or marginal land and for the reclamation of contaminated land. In turn, the presence of biologically active compounds offers opportunities for its use in medicine. Wider diversification of cultivated species is a key to ensuring food security and economic sustainability, especially in view of the observed climate change. In this context, an extensive review of literature dealing with taxonomic studies, morphological diversity and biological properties of L. thuringiaca, and the potential for multipurpose use of this species has been carried out.
