The cyst nematode Heterodera cajani is one of the major endemic diseases of pigeonpea, an important legume for food security and protein nutrition in India. It occurs in several pulse crops grown over a range of Indian agro climatic conditions but the extent of its intraspecific variation is inadequately defined. In view of this, 11 populations of Heterodera cajani were analyzed using morphometrics and the results correlated with those obtained from an AFLP approach using 24 primer pair combinations that amplified a total of 1278 AFLP markers. The cluster solution from this binary data indicated similarities for five populations that differed from those suggested by morphometrics. The differences obtained could not be related to geographic distance between populations. The data suggests that recent and long distance dispersal has occurred whose causes need to be defined to restrict further field introductions. Four AFLP primer pairs clustered the populations similarly to that generated using all 24 primer pairs. This simplified approach may provide a rapid basis for discriminating populations for their future management and help to check further distribution in agricultural trade. It may also have potential to determine differences in populations that relate to host range or virulence to resistance genes.
