Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Olea europaea ssp. europaea (Oleaceae) grows in the Mediterranean region. The fruits are used for olive oil and for fruit canning, besides the species is drought and salt tolerant. The Galega cultivar represents 80% of the Portuguese olive area, and it is used in four out of the five Protected Origin Denomination (POD) regions. Despite the large distribution area in the country, cultivar certification is done through phenotypic characteristics, but environmental influence might blur informativeness, and molecular markers could help in clarifying cultivar accessions certification.
