Genetic diversity in the Lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.) as revealed by chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) variations
2001-10-01
Abstract excerpt
Genetic diversity in the Lima bean (P. lunatus L.) was assessed by means of two chloroplast DNA probes. Based on data obtained from 152 accessions including wild forms and landraces, the two separate Mesoamerican and Andean groups were confirmed and a transition pool of genetic diversity was observed in the two botanical forms consistent with their distribution range. Three primary centres of genetic diversity and...
