Beverage quality of coffee is the most important for
consumers. The objective of this
research was to determine the genotypic and phenotypic variability of Arabica
coffee (Coffea arabica L.).
Nested design with three factors was used. The organoleptic quality of 28 genotypes was
analyzed. This research revealed that most
of the organoleptic qualities had low genotypic and phenotypic variations. Fragrance/aroma, flavor, aftertaste, acidity,
body, uniformity, balance, sweetness, overall and total score showed low
heritability and low genetic advance.
