Studies on Hevea genetic resources in Vietnam: Results of evaluation and utilization - IRRDB Symposium on Natural Rubber(Hevea brasiliensis) V.1- General, Soils and Fertilization and Breeding and Selection Sessions Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, 14-15 October 1997, p89-100
The Hevea genetic resources of Vietnam currently comprise 3485 genotypes of various origins; the majority of these are derived from the 1981 IRRDB Amazonian germplasm collection. Part of the collection has been evaluated in various trials. This paper reviews the results of the evaluation of the resource, especially the IRRDB 81 germplasm, on the agronomic characteristics, the physiological characteristics of latex, the anatomical characteristics and the technological properties of the rubber. The utilization of the Hevea resource in the breeding programme of RRI Vietnam is also discussed.
