Development of Improved
Cocoa Clones for Farmers:
Malaysia Cocoa Clones
• 1950’s-1960’s Amelonado and its hybrids, but, were unsuitable to the local
environment because of susceptibility to dieback disease and
poor tolerance to expose (high light intensity); poor yielder
(e.g. Aml x Pa7, Aml x SCA9)
• 1970’s-1990’s Trinitario and Forestero hybrids of the Upper Amazon origin;
higher yielding and more tolerant to dieback disease than the
Amelonado hybrids
(e.g. UIT1 x Na33, UIT1 x SCA6, Pa138 x SCA9, Pa156 x IMC 67)
• 2000’s onwards Locally selected superior clones; more superior with regards to
yield and generally to disease i.e. vascular streak die-back and
black pods
(e.g. PBC 123, KKM 22, QH 1003, MCBC1)
Historical Aspects: Planting materials
• 1950’s-1960’s
government agencies (e.g. Department of Agriculture)
• 1970’s-1990’s
government and private plantation agencies
(e.g. Department of Agriculture, Sime Darby Plantations)
• 2000’s onwards
government, private plantation agencies, individual
farmers/smallholders
Historical Aspects: Agencies involved
Genetic Materials
• Mainly forestero and trinitario, some criollio
• Introduced mainly from the Intermediate Quarantine facility of the Reading University, UK
• Two years quarantine period or until certified disease or disorder free
• Presently over 1000 accession each of the introduced and locally selected materials
Steps in the Development of Planting Materials
1. Selecting clones to be introduced from Intermediate Quarantine Facility
2. Quarantine requirement (at least 2 years)
3. Local suitability evaluation (6-10 years)
4. Generation of hybrids population and evaluation of desired crosses/progenies (>8 years)
5. Selection of elite individual tress from hybrid population and evaluation (6-10 years)
6. Local verification trials (6-10 years)
7. Selection of clones for commercial planting (2-4 years after local verification completion)
8. Establishment of budwood garden
9. Distribution of superior clones
10. Monitoring of clones performance in the cocoa growers field
Criteria for Recommended Clones
• High yielding: >2t/ha/year
• Average dried beans: >1.0g
• Pod index: 25
• Bean number per pods: >30
• Shell content: <12%
• Cocoa butter: >50%
• Disease tolerance: VSD, BP
• Insect pest tolerance: Helopeltis, Cocoa pod borer (most preferred)
