Description India has a large repository of important tea accessions and, therefore,
plays a major role in improving production and quality of tea across the world.
Using seven AFLP primer combinations, we analyzed 123 commercially important
tea accessions representing major populations in India. The overall genetic similarity
recorded was 51%. No significant differences were recorded in average
genetic similarity among tea populations cultivated in various geographic regions
(northwest 0.60, northeast and south both 0.59). UPGMA cluster analysis grouped
the tea accessions according to geographic locations, with a bias toward China or
Assam/Cambod types. Cluster analysis results were congruent with principal
component analysis. Further, analysis of molecular variance detected a high level of
