Derivation: Estacion Experimental Tropical.
Location: E.E.T. Pichilingue, Ecuador.

Notes:  Some EET clones are imported genotypes which have been given the duplicate identifier [IMP], [POU] for kown Pound collections and [MIG] for known SAN MIGUEL clones.
 

Synonyms: G VI 56, G VI 56 [ECU], EET POUND 272 [POU], G VI EET 56 [ECU], EET 272 [POU]

 NOTES

Bartley, 1997a [BAR97A] Could be a hybrid between POUND 7 and POUND 18 or POUND 21.

 - [BAR95A] Presumed to be derived from the plants left in Peru by Pound (late 1930's). The fruit shape resembles that of some PA clones and the high seed numbers it produces suggest that it may be related to POUND 7 [POU] or POUND 21 [POU].
