Results of Redundancy Analysis (RDA) that relates selected genetic diversity (G—number of AFLP genotypes, Pareto <i>beta</i> index) and leaf chlorophyll content with chlorophyll fluorescence parameters.

Pareto beta is index measuring the spatial distribution of genotypes and could be related to inter- and intraclonal competition. The highest value of beta were recorded in population with many equall-sized genotypes while the lowest with population dominated with few large clones. The results of Monte Carlo permutation test (with 999 permutations) of the variables is presented: Var—variance explained, F—pseudo-F, and significance level
