A comparison of yield potential and cultivar performance of 20 collected purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) accessions employing seeds vs. stem cuttings

A glasshouse experiment was conducted in Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) to evaluate the regeneration and yield potential in purslane using both seeds and stem cuttings of 20 collected accessions from different locations in Western Peninsular Malaysia. Analysis results revealed significant variation...
