Microflora associated with high and low grown arabica and robusta coffee
Samples of soil, rhizosphere, phyllosphere, caulosphere and pomosphere from various plantations of high- and low-grown arabica (Coffea arabica) and robusta (C. canephora) coffee in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, India were assessed for their quantitativeand qualitative microflora features. The nature of these microflora in association with coffee habitat was determined to support the biological control and crop quality improvement programmes. A positive rhizosphere effect and a wider microbial biodiversity were observed in the coffee habitat. Quantitatively, bacteria were found to dominate in all the samples followed by actinomycetes, fungi and yeast. Qualitatively, fungal species dominated the other species. Genera such as Bacillus, Pseudomonas and Serratia in bacteria, Aspergillus, Penicillium, Cladosporium, Trichoderma, Mucor, Rhizopus and Fusarium in fungi, Streptomyces and Nocardia in actinomycetes and Saccharomyces and Candida in yeast were dominant in the coffee ecosystem.
