VARIABILITY PARAMETERS FOR GROWTH AND YIELD CHARACTERS IN FENUGREEK (Trigonella Spp.) GENOTYPES

Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 14

Abstract

A field experiment comprising of twenty six germplasm of fenugreek (Trigonella spp.) along with two standard checks Pant Ragini and Pusa Early Bunching was carried out. The analysis of variance revealed highly significant differences among all the genotypes for all traits. High genotypic and phenotypic coefficient variation were observed for characters, namely no. of primary branches per plant, number of leaves at 30, 45 and 60 DAS, green leaf yield per plant(g),green leaf yield q/ha .The GCV values were highest for number of primary branches per plant (21.41%) and number of leaves per plant at 30, 45 and 60 DAS (20.38%, 19.31% and 20.37%), 1000 seed weight (18.85%).The PCV values were maximum for number of leaves per plant at 30 DAS (25.71%).The genetic advance recorded highest in green leaf yield q/ha (33.93) followed by green leaf yield per plant (21.20). Highest percent of heritability were shown by 1000 seed weight (99.12%) followed by number of primary branches per plant (97.18%).Green leaf yield per plant (g) and green leaf yield q/ha showed high heritability and high genetic advance.
