Genetic divergence in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp] for yield components and seed quality parameters

Forty cowpea genotypes were evaluated for 18 quantitative characters to estimate the genetic diversity existing among them by using Mahalanobis D2statistics. The genotypes were grouped into six clusters. The cluster strength varied from single genotype (Clusters III, IV and V) to 25 genotypes (Clust...
