fAFLP moleculars markers were utilized to estimate genetic diversity among 36 yellow passion fruit accessions (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa Deg.) collected in 18 Brazilian states. The obtained results led to the conclusion that the fAFLP markers were consistent regarded to the evaluation of genetic variability, detecting and quantifying the ample genetic divergence among the 36 analysed accessions, as well as to the no geografhic structural formation. Such results can be useful to the definition of more efficient strategies to be applied in breeding programmes of yellow passion fruit.
