Capitata L.) genotypes grown under Baniyas \u200eConditions.\u200e Fifty genotypes (Plants) were analyzed using 25 morphological traits (included leaves and heads) in order to evaluate the genetic distance and to \u200eestablish a dendrogram of genetic relationships between the studied genotypes. High level of diversity \u200ewas detected between the different genotypes. The 50 genotypes were clustered \u200ein 8 distinct groups with genetic distance about 80%, ratio of head formation was 80%, the head weight ranged from 2.1 to 3.9kg. Head shape was spheric or transverse elliptic. head cover from subtending leaves was exposed, intermediate, covered. The presence of a wide genetic base in Baladi cabbadge \u200eallows the selection and the combination of interesting genotypes for important characters to obtain \u200eimproved varieties able of competing in the local market.<\/span><\/p>\n \u200e<\/strong>Keyword:<\/strong> Balady cabbage, morphological variation, compact head, genetic distance.<\/span><\/p>\n Full paper in Arabic: pdf<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Rima Almouie*(1) and Bassam Alsaleh Alabd (2) \u00a0(1).
