Genetic divergence in Brassica rapa L.

Abstract: Different multivariate analysis techniques were used to classify 33 Brassica rapa L. genotypes. The genotypes were grouped into five clusters. Cluster I contained the maximum number of genotypes. Cluster III earned the highest cluster mean value for number of primary branches/plant, number of secondary branches/plant, number of siliquae/plant and seed yield/plant. Therefore, more emphasis can be given on cluster III for selecting genotypes as parents for the hybridization program. The highest intra-cluster dis… Show more

“…Hence, crossing between genotypes belonging to these clusters may result in high heterosis, which could be exploited in crop improvement. In conformity to the present investigation, similar findings were found by [34][35][36] and [39].…”

“…However, much of this diversity is concentrated in the Indo-Gangetic plains and the submountain Himalayas. Genetic diversity plays a significant role in plant improvement because a hybrid between the lines of diverse origin usually display a greater heterosis than those between closely related ones (Naznin et al, 2015) which permit the selection of genetically divergent plants to obtain the desirable recombination of segregating generation.…”
