Processes underpinning development and maintenance of diversity in rice in West Africa: evidence from combining morphological and molecular markers

We assessed the interplay of artificial and natural selection in rice adaptation in low-input farming systems in West Africa. Using 20 morphological traits and 176 molecular markers, 182 farmer varieties of rice (Oryza spp.) from 6 West African countries were characterized. Principal component analy...
