Abstract
Moringa (Moringa oleifera Lam.) is an important plant from the Moringaceae family
which has many uses. This study aimed to determine the intraspecies diversity of
moringa plants based on morphological characteristics in Tampan District,
Pekanbaru. This research was conducted in February-April 2020. The sampling
method used was a survey and characterization was carried out at the sampling
location and in the laboratory. The criteria determined as sample plants were
characterized by a plant age of 5 years or more and a mature tree that had ever
fruited. The diversity of 4 individual moringa plants based on morphological
characteristics obtained similarity coefficient values in the range of 0.23 to 0.82. The
lowest coefficient values were found in Mo 2 and Mo 3, while the highest coefficient
values were owned by Mo 1 and Mo 3. The Moringa cluster analysis showed that the
coefficient of 31% divided the samples into two large groups which each consisted of
two individual plants
