Abstract excerpt
A knowledge of existing levels of diversity is fundamental for planning in situ (on-farm) conservation activities. Three neighbouring cowpea landraces (LRs) currently cultivated in central Italy were studied by amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and selectively amplified microsatellite polymorphic locus (SAMPL) markers to determine the distribution of genetic variation within and among them. The three...
