3.2. Occurences dataset construction
After data cleaning steps, the final occurrence dataset conained 53 locations points for the species (including 17 from GBIF), 22 for Pop 1 and 25 for Pop 2, distributed across three agroclimatic zones of Benin, Burkina Faso, Ghana and Togo. The Fig 3 shows Pop1 distributed across two agroecologies, the Northern-Guinean and Southern-Sudanian zones whereas the Pop2 and GBIF points were represented in all agroecologies. At the country level, Pop2 was distributed across the four countries while the Pop1 was located in Benin and Togo.
