Arabica coffee in Ethiopia ’s southwestern forests, thought to be the bean’s birthplace, on July 10th 2018. Thomson Reuters Foundation/Tom Gardner Coffee undoubtedly is a big part of global culture, and the kind made from the Arabica bean is the most appreciated by coffee drinkers.
“Arabica is one of the world’s premier commodity crops, taking up a large part of the agricultural economies of countries in which it is grown,” said plant evolutionary biologist Victor Albert of the University at Buffalo in New York, one of the leaders of the study published this week in the journal Nature Genetics.
“Coffee and humankind are closely related throughout history. In many producing countries, the Arabica coffee represents more than a crop, it is part of the culture and tradition,” said Patrick Descombes, a genomics senior expert at Nestlé Research and lecturer at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology , another of the study leaders.
Coffee is one of the world’s most widely consumed beverages – an estimated 2.25 billion cups of it is consumed daily – as well as one of the most traded commodities. Arabica represents the majority of the world’s coffee production.
