BONILLA BETANCOURT, Martha Liliana et al. Establishment of a Cape gooseberry working collection collected in the colombian southwest zone. Acta Agron. [online]. 2008, vol.57, n.2, pp.95-99. ISSN 0120-2812.

Physalis peruviana L. is a promissory fruit specie for the Colombian Andean  zone, however, it has not been a priority for genetic resource  conservation. In this study a working collection of 222 accessions collected in the states of Nariño, Valle del Cauca, Cauca, Caldas, Quindío and Cundinamarca of Colombia was established and registered in a computational data base. It represent the variability present of native and spontaneous varieties. Seeds of the collected materials are available in cold room in the Experimental Center of The National University of Colombia at Palmira’s campus. This collection contributes to the conservation and genetic diversity studies of this specie. In addition its contributes to implement  breeding programs.
