✦ Synopsis
The phenetic relationships of 32 cacao clones were analysed with several multivariate statistical methods and the results were compared with their genetic relationships. Also the relationships between 33 cacao characteristics were studied based on average measurements and observations from each of 294 clones. Some conclusions were drawn with respect to cacao breeding using simple correlations between characteristics.
