African Leafy Vegetables (ALVs) are important sources of essential macro and micro-nutrients. In addition they offer a source of livelihood when marketed, and also contribute to crop biodiversity. Despite these positive aspects, only a few ALVs are grown, marketed and consumed in Kenya. This stud...

Restriction fragment analysis was used to determine the variation of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) among and within different species of Passiflora. Total DNAs of 35 accessions, representing 12 species, were digested with four restriction endonucleases. Southern blots of the restriction digests were th...
