Description
A mission to collect germplasm of native legumes with forage potential was carried out In February-March 1992 In Vietnam, The collection route essentially followed a North-to-South transect and covered a wide range of ecological conditions between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Altogether 195 samples of at least 25 genera weie collected. 639' of the samples corresponded lo species within the high-priority genus Desmodlum, Its related genera Dendrobium, Hegnera, Pliyllodlum and Tadehagl, and the genus Puerarla, The native legume Dora is severely endangered by genetic erosion and areas for urgent future collection missions were ldenlifled.
