GENETIC DIVERGENCE IN FOXTAIL MILLET (SETARIA ITALICA B.)

Published on Nov 02, 2019 02:37 AM

225 genotypes of foxtail millet were subjected to multivariate analyses through
Mahalanobis' 0 2 statistic and canonical analysis. Both analyses suggested the existence of
considerable divergence among the material. 0 2 statistic resulted in 33 dusters. Genetic
divergence has not been found to be related with geographical diversity.
