Abstract

This study aims to determine the types of cocoa plants and family relationships that exist in Kampung Makian Village and Papaloang Village. The research method used a descriptive method by looking at the morphological markers of the cocoa plant as a diversity differentiator. The analysis used to determine the kinship relationship is the analysis of cluster and ANOVA tests, then a dendrogram is produced which can describe the relationships between trees. The step of the research was started with field observations and then determining the sampling village, followed by sampling the one that was in accordance with the descriptor of the cocoa plant morphology. The dendrogram shows that there is a kinship that is very close between trees, but there are also those who have distant kinship. Cocoa plants in Kampung Makian Village and Papaloang Village have high diversity. There are liam types of cocoa plants according to their form in the village of Kamoung Makian and Paploang Village, namely forastero, angoleta, cundeamor, amelonado, and calbacillo.
