Abstract
As a result, 134 accessions of leguminous plants consist of the genus Cajanus, Lablab, Macrotyloma and Vigna, were recorded and seed samples consisting of 99 cultivated and 35 wild accessions were collected.All the seed materials collected were deposited at Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, India.Genetic erosion of traditional pulse landraces is rapidly proceeding in Tamil Nadu mainly due to an increase in the area of cash crops.pdf/report/plant-H19.pdf ; you can download a Tamil Nadu trip report by clicking the title in the content listed on page 7 of the PDF book). MethodsWe surveyed mainly in the central and northern part of Tamil Nadu State by car from 29 th January to 10 th February, 2009 as shown in Table 1 and Fig. 1.Seeds, herbarium specimens and root nodules (if available) were collected.Information on collection sites including village name, altitude, latitude, longitude, habitat, cultural practices and other ecological data of the collection sites were recorded as passport data (Table 3).Identification of wild Vigna plants was done based on a key characteristics prepared by Tomooka et al. (2002, p.26-28). Results and DiscussionA total of 134 legume accessions including the genus Cajanus, Lablab, Macrotyloma and Vigna consist of 9 species were recorded and seed samples were collected (Table 2 & 3).
