Wild cane (Gynerium sagittatum Aubl.) fiber is used as raw material for to make hat vueltiao. A molecular characterization using AFLP was carriet out to estimate genetic variability of 25 accessions planted at the University of Cordoba, associated with geographical and morphological traits. Multiple discrimination correspondence analyses of introductions separated four groups, based on craft handling and agronomic attributes desirable. There was little correlation between geographic distance and genetic differentiation, indicating an anthropic flows by asexual reproduction.
