Genetic divergence by morphoagronomic traits in lima bean.

Genetic divergence by morphoagronomic traits in lima bean.

Lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.) is an important crop in Central and South America and Africa. In Brazil, mainly in the Northeast region, is an income and alternative food source for the population; however it is also cultivated in South and Southeast regions. Lima bean reveals high polymorphism and seed morphology has been one of the key traits in understanding the genetic diversity in this species. The aim of this research was to study the genetic dissimilarity among 166 lima bean samples from Embrapa?s Collection.
