Tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa L.) is one of the most important tropical ornamental bulbous flowering plant, commercially used as cut and loose flower due to pleasant fragrance. In the present study, genetic variability among 22 single type tuberose genotypes was studied using morphological traits. As per mean performance Bidhan Rajni-1 attained highest with respect to Plant Height, Rachis length, Flower Length, Flower breadth and Weight of stick. Calcutta Single performed highest in case of number of leaf and number of tiller. Bidhan Rajani-2 gave highest number of flower. The tallest spikes were shown for the Sikkim Selection. Widest leaves were shown for Bidhan Rajani-5. The maximum weight of five flowers was shown in case of Bidhan Rajani-3. The maximum GCV was observed in case of weight of flower (40.47%). High heritability and high GA had been found for number of leaf, height of spike for single type genotypes. Thus it suggests that additive genes may control these characters.
