An experiment was conducted to study genetic variability present in the thirty six genotypes and observations were recorded on various yield and yield contributing characters viz., days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, plant height, number of branches per plant, number of pods per plant, 100 seed weight and grain yield per plant. Analysis of variance revealed highly significant differences among the genotypes for the all the characters. High PCV and GCV were observed for branches per plant, pods per plant and yield per plant indicate the presence of wider adaptability for these traits in the genotypes studied, suggested the less influence of environment in the expression of characters. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance as percent of mean was observed for days to 50% flowering, plant height, branches per plant, pods per plant, 100 seed weight and seed yield per plant indicating operation of additive gene action and the ample scope for improvement in these traits through simple selection.
