Book cover Plant Genetic Resources of Legumes in the Mediterranean

Part of the book series: Current Plant Science and Biotechnology in Agriculture ((PSBA,volume 39))

Abstract

The genus Vicia comprises approximately 190 species (ILDIS, 1999), chiefly located in Europe, Asia and North America, extending to temperate South America and tropical East Africa. The genus is primarily located in the Mediterranean and Irano-Turanian regions (Kupicha, 1981). It is adapted to temperate regions but can also be found at high altitudes in tropical Africa. Endemic species are present on all continents, except Australia and Antarctica.
