The present investigation was conducted during Rabi seasons of 2014-15 and 2015-16 at the experimental field of Department of Horticulture, Prayagraj School of Agriculture, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj The analysis of variance revealed that mean squares due to genotypes were significant for all the characters during both the years which indicated that, considerable genetic variation among the genotypes for all the traits. The genotypes viz., VRP-22, VRP-5, KS-156, Azad Pea and VRP-7 were found promising for growth characters during both the years. The genotypes namely, KS-156, VRP-22, Azad Pea-3, VRP-5 and KS-149 were found superior for pod yield and its attributes. The estimates of PCV were higher than corresponding GCV for all characters studied which indicated that the apparent variation is not only due to genotypes but, also due to the influence of environment. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance were observed for pod yield per plant, height of plants, number of branches per plant, number of pods per plant, protein and ash content during both the years which revealed that these characters are governed by additive gene action and phenotypic selection would be effective for the improvement of characters.
