Abstract:
Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc), a legume native to Africa, has the potential to address food security challenges on the continent. However, it is an underutilized crop because there hasn't been enough research done on its genetic diversity, selection, and breeding, particularly with the use of genomic tools. This study was aim at assessing the genetic diversity in chloroplast genome of Bambara groundnut genotypes by using agarose gel electrophoresis and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs). The results showed the PCR gel products of the amplified rpoA gene is ± 1000 base pairs (bp) for the seven Vigna subterranea genotypes. A total of 442 and 437 SNPs were detected in 5'UTR and 3'-UTR regions from the amplified sequence of seven genotypes of Vigna subterranea rpoA gene which represent 4.2 and 4.4%.
