The objective of this study is to evaluate genetic diversity of Kumba group. For this, a molecular characterization of forty-nine (49) accessions collected in the three climatic zones was carried out. | Evaluation of genetic diversity of african eggplant Solanum aethiopicum L. sub sp Kumba using EST-SSR molecular markers
