Phenotypic variation for 12 traits was anal analyzed by multivariate methods. A canonical variate analysis provided a preliminary criteria for distinguishing the populations. The first three canonical components account for 93% of the total variance. Seed weight per ear was the most important character to discriminate among populations. The preliminary groups formed will serve as centers of diversity for future collections.
