 ABSTRACT

Fifty diverse genotypes of Indian bean were evaluated in a Randomized Block Design with three replications to the study of genetic variability parameters during late kharif 2016-17. The analysis of variance revealed that mean square due to genotypes was highly significant for all seventeen characters studied. A wide range of variation was observed for green pod yield per plant, 10-green pod weight, seed yield per plant, plant height and number of pods per plant. High phenotypic and genotypic coefficient of variations, high heritability coupled with high genetic advance as per cent of mean was observed for 10-green pod weight, green pod yield per plant, number of pods per plant, seed yield per plant, pod width, 100-seed weight, pod length and plant height..

Key words: Genetic variation and Indian bean.
