Resumen

Coffea canephora seedlings from three origins (Lula, Kwilu, and Bolondi) were cultivated for one year at three sites at different elevations: Yangambi (450 m a.s.l.), Mambasa (800 m a.s.l.), and Mulungu (1,700 m a.s.l.) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. We measured eight morphological, growth, and functional traits and four stomatal traits.
