Other claims from this paper (3)
- Observation The 51 betelvine genotypes grouped into six clusters, and the clustering pattern did not follow geographical origin.
- Observation Cluster analysis revealed wide genetic distance between Cluster V and Cluster VI, between Cluster IV and Cluster VI, and between Cluster III and Cluster V.
- Recommendation Parents should be selected from clusters with high inter- and intra-cluster distance to obtain substantial heterosis in economic traits.
