In the present investigation, nine crosses of black gram (Vigna mungo L.) were evaluated in F2and F3generations for the effective selection for yield and yield components. The segregating generation of the crosses included were PU 06-20 x VBN 4, IPU 2006-01 x ADT3, IPU 2006-01 x VBN 4, IPU 2006-01 x TNY LOCAL, IPU 02-33 x VBN 4, IPU 02-33 x VBN 4, IPU 02-33 x TNY LOCAL, WBG 26 x VBN 3, MASH 114 x VBN 3 and MASH 114 x TNY LOCAL. The estimates of PCV values are higher than that of GCV. The genotypic variance was found to be high for clusters per plant, pods per cluster and single plant yield in both the generations in the cross MASH 114 x TNY LOCAL. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance as per cent of mean in both generations was recorded by IPU 02-33 x TNY LOCAL for the characters clusters per plant, pods per cluster, pods per plant, seeds per pod and single plant yield. Thus, these two crosses were shortlisted as the ones amenable for selection.
