[Methods] Parameter values of six traits of 161 clones were ana-lyzed and evaluated. [ Results] Minkowski genetic distance was established for cluster analysis of core collection. Preferred sampling method (D 2C5S3) was suit-able for the construction of the core collection of cassava. A total of 25 core collections were obtained, which accounted for 15% of the original germplasm and could represent the genetic diversity and integrity of the original germplasms. Meanwhile, it reflected that the genetic background of the tested cassava germplasm was nar-row and the range of genetic diversity was quite small with genetic redundancy. [ Conclusions] Constructing core collection provided a theoretical foundation for the protection and utilization of cassava germplasms.展开更多
