Abstract

CLUSTAL‐X program ‐ aligning DNA sequences

Fusarium resistance of cultivar ‐ “Tsy Taitry” developed in Madagascar

interspecific hybridization between V. planifolia and V. odorata ‐ origin of commercially important species V. tahitensis

molecular analysis ‐ of vanilla hybrid cultivated in Costa Rica

natural interspecific hybridization ‐ important factor in plant speciation

PCR amplification, cloning and DNA sequencing

rooted maximum parsimony phylogenetic tree ‐ of chloroplast Psab sequences

rooted maximum parsimony phylogenetic tree ‐ of nuclear ITS sequences

V. tahitensis, cultivated in Tahiti and Papua New Guinea ‐ speculation and folklore

vanilla cultivar ‐ in Costa Rica, hybrid between V. planifolia and V. pompona
