Genetic diversity is our heritage, efficient germplasm collection
and its evaluation is the key factor to address the problem and to
identify the wealth of the important germplasm growing in our close
vicinity. In the present study a total of 40 genotypes of Phaseolus
vulgaris (L) were collected from plane and mountainous areas of
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pakistan, and investigated for morphological and
biochemical genetic diversity. An appreciable variation was
observed for seed colour and 100 seed weight. SDS-PAGE was carried
out and 37% genetic disagreement was observed in the collected
lines with percent disagreement ranging from 0.00 - 0.71. To
fractionate and explain the level of genetic diversity, the
electropherogram was further divided into three zones and showing
37%, 36 % and 39% genetic disagreement respectively and
subsequently analyzed through cluster analysis (how to use computer
software for cluster analysis "see tutorial for cluster analysis"
narrated in this book). Cluster analysis exhibited moderate level
of genetic diversity; to explore the gene pool of Pakistani common
bean more collection is required for genetic improvement.
