The cultivation of cocoa fine national type and aroma is disappearing in Ecuador, each year are more producers who prefer the clones of hybrids of high production as the CCN-51, causing an unstoppable erosion and a vulnerable genetic uniformity, exterminating completely genes are very important to maintain the diversity of the species. The conservation of the gene pool of Theobroma cacao L., provides us with an insurance against the adverse conditions that may arise in the future, ensuring food and good living. One of the main problems is the most nurseries are artisanal and are handled by staff that lacks the technical knowledge necessary to be able to propagate the planting material properly. The difficult asexual spread by grafts (limited skilled labor) and spread by twigs (seizures less than 25%), meant to make the present work had as objective the determination of the efficiency of the hormones trade and natural origin to achieve the greatest percentage of rooting in twigs of cocoa national type, used a same substrate ratio of 1: 2: 1 (fine sand, soil, humus).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
