ABSTRACT
An experiment was carried out to know the variability present among the 35 genotypes of coriander for yield and yield attributing characters during season of Rabi 2016-17. Analysis of variance revealed the significant difference for all the fourteen characters studied indicate the presence of extensive amount of variability. The high genetic coefficient of variation observed for number of seeds umbellet-1 at harvest, seed yield plant-1 and seed yield hectare-1 whereas, high phenotypic co-efficient of variation was observed for number of umbels per plant at harvest, number of seeds umbellet-1, seed yield plant-1 and seed yield hectare-1. Estimates of broad sense heritability was recorded high for plant height, number of primary branches, days to first flowering, days to 50 % flowering, days to harvest, number of umbels plant-1, number of umbellets umbel-1, number of seeds umbellet-1, seed yield plant-1, seed yield hectare-1 and harvest index. Genetic advance as percent of mean was high for number of primary branches, number of umbels plant-1, number of umbellets umbel-1, number of seeds umbellet-1, seed yield plant-1, seed yield hectare-1 and harvest index.
Key words: Coriander, GCV, PCV, Genetic variability, Heritability and Genetic advance as percent of mean.
