![]() The present study explored the natural genotypic variation found in single genotypes of bambara groundnut derived from landraces to identify adaptive differences in tap root length (TRL) and root length density (RLD) in response to DS. However, root traits have not been fully utilised as selection criteria to improve DS in bambara groundnut. ![]() Natural genotypic variation for root traits is essential for adaptation to water deficit conditions. 3School of Biosciences, University of Nottingham, Leicester, United Kingdomīambara groundnut is grown in rainfed production systems and suffers from periodic drought stress (DS), leading to yield reductions.2Crops for the Future, National Institute of Agricultural Botany, Cambridge, United Kingdom.1Future Food Beacon, School of Biosciences, University of Nottingham Malaysia, Semenyih, Malaysia.Kumbirai Ivyne Mateva 1, Hui Hui Chai 1, Sean Mayes 2,3 and Festo Massawe 1*
