Summary: Phaseolus lunatus L. known as lima bean, is a tropical legume specie known for high genetic diversity and yield potential (MAQUET et al., 1999). The analysis of genetic diversity is needed for better conservation. Estimating genetic diversity, by multivariate analysis, enhances the efficiency of germplasm collection management and genetic improvement. This study was conducted to investigate the genetic diversity in Lima Bean Active Germplasm Bank (BAG) from Federal University of Piauí (UFPI) based on quantitative traits of seeds.
