Genetic Divergence in Fababean

Abstract

Fababean germplasm including 84 exotic lines from West Germany and 9
indigenous lines, were evaluated for ten metric traits of economic importance.
The lines could be grouped into six clusters using D2 and metrog/yph analysis.
The grouping parttern revealed by the metroglyph analysis and D2 analysis
had 55.9% resemblance. The comparative efficiency of these two methods
to classify the germplasm collection has been discussed.
