## From coastal collections to a new cultivar

Documented history: consult the claims and qualifications in the cited sources.

INIAP collected mango material in Manabí and Guayas, then evaluated it at its Litoral Sur station. The selection that became Gota de Miel was cloned by grafting and tested for four consecutive years near Portoviejo and Virgen de Fátima.

The 2022 release account singles out line INIAP-FRU-PF-MO1 for its fruit quality and high soluble-solids readings. “Gota de Miel” translates as “drop of honey”; that translation describes the name, while the release document supplies the breeding story.
