This research aims to evaluate genetic variability among groundnut genotypes based on agro-morphological and quality traits.
Evaluated 36 groundnut genotypes in a 6 x 6 simple lattice design during the 2023 post-rainy season.
Collected data on kernel yield, oil content, and morphological traits; conducted PCA and clustering analysis.
Calculated Euclidean distances to determine genetic variability among the genotypes.
First six principal components accounted for 74.51% of total variation, with significant contributions from PC1 and PC2.
Clustering identified six major clusters reflecting genetic similarities and diversities among genotypes.
Genetic distances among genotypes varied significantly, presenting opportunities for hybridization in breeding.
