ABSTRACT
The mean performance of the genotypes revealed the variation was highest for seed yield per plot, days taken to maturity, germination percentage. The PCV was higher than the GCV for all the characters. High PCV and GCV were observed for weight of seeds per pod, seed yield (q/ha-1), length internodes, number of pods per plant. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance for traits such as a like seed yield, weight of pod, weight of seed per pod. All the characters except number of branches at 90 DAS, germination percentage and days taken to maturity were found to be significant, which indicates high extent of genetic variability for all the traits under study.
Keywords: genotypes, germination, Fenugreek, Heritability
