Abstract

SummaryEighteen accessions of okra of diverse ecological background were evaluated for genetic variability through the techniques of coefficient of racial likeness (CRL) and principal coordinate analysis (PCO). The variation patterns among the accessions were classified by using the techniques of metroglyph analysis and single‐linkage cluster analysis. CRL and PCO produced similar results on the diversity of the accessions but the grouping of the accessions by metroglyph analysis and SLCA produced different results. The usefulness of metroglyph analysis depends on the amount of variation accounted for by the two principal characters on which the two co‐ordinate axes are constructed. The techniques are compared.
