Genetic diversity and structure of the introduced germplasm of the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis Willd. ex A. Juss) in Costa Rica

Key Points

• Genetic diversity was significantly observed in the introduced germplasm of rubber tree species.
• The analysis of Hevea brasiliensis revealed distinct population structures across different regions.
• Observational analysis of genetic material employed techniques for assessing diversity and structure.
• Findings suggest potential for enhancing rubber production and resilience through effective breeding strategies.
