Abstract:

Forty genotypes of fenugreek were studied in a field experiment under North Gujarat condition. The observations on ten morphological traits were recorded. The analysis of variance indicated presence of considerable amount of variability in the population of genotypes studied. The highest GCV was observed for seed yield per plant, number of branches per plant, number of pods per plant and harvest index. High heritability along with high genetic advance as per cent of mean was observed for seed yield per plant, number of branches per plant, number of pods per plant, pod length and harvest index. High heritability estimates along with high genetic advance as per cent of mean indicates that variation for these characters is due to additive gene effects and consequently the scope is more for improving seed yield per plant, number of branches per plant, number of pods per plant and harvest index through selection.
