Abstract:
The present experiment was carried out to find out the diversity among the different genotypes with the using 42 diverse genotypes including two checks for quantitative traits and qualitative traits. The study was conducted with the field evaluation of 44 genotypes during 2019-20. The wide range of variation variability among the traits during 2019-20. The observation was recorded Days to 50 per cent flowering, primary branches per plant, node to first flower appears, node to first pod appears, length of pod (cm), pod diameter (cm), number of seeds per pod, number of pods per plant, number of pods per 250g, number of seeds per 250g, weight of seed per 250g, shelling (%), T.S.S.(0B) and pod yield per plant (g). Genotypes involved in this study were genetically diverse and have good breeding value, which confirmed the predictions of analysis of variance. Out of 44 genotypes among eighteen genotypes were produced significantly higher yield than best check PC-521.
