Twenty five genotypes of carrot were evaluated for different traits in a randomized complete block design with two replications. The variation was observed for all the parameters studied. Root weight, root/top length ratio, total yield/plot, total yield/ha, cortex thickness, TSS, β-carotene content, ascorbic acid content, total phenol, protein, root forking and root splitting showed high genotypic coefficient of variation and phenotypic coefficient of variation. High heritability was observed for all the characters except number of leaves/plant, petiole length, root diameter, root length and days to first root harvest. High genetic advance over mean was observed for all the characters except number of leaves/plant, petiole thickness, root diameter, root length and days to first root harvest.
