| dc.description.abstract | Studies were undertaken in fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) with nine genotypes having diversified origin to assess the extent of variability, to estimate the heritability and to study the genetic diversity present among the genotypes. Based on per se performance in rabi, the genotypes DFC-2 (20.13 q/ha), DFC-1 (19.72 q/ha) and DFC-7 (19.63 q/ha) were found superior for yield. Whereas in late rabi, DFC-4 (12.90 q/ha), DFC-7 (12.28 q/ha) and DFC-3 (12.21 q/ha) recorded higher yield. Moderate to high genotypic coefficients of variation were observed for plant height, number of leaves, number of pods, 100-seed weight and yield per plant indicating wide variability with low environmental influence. The heritability was high for the characters like plant height at 30, 60 and 90 DAS, days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, 100-seed weight and yield per plant. Genetic advance as per cent of mean was found to be highest for plant height at 30 DAS (57.57%), number of leaves at 30 DAS (25.26%) and 100-seed weight (37.94%). In diversity study of fenugreek genotypes, three clusters were formed in rabi and two during late rabi. Among the characters studied, days to maturity and 100- seed weight contributed more to diversity. Thus these characters with wide variability and less environmental influence can be used for further improvement. Present study indicated that DFC-7 was found to perform well during both the seasons. The diversity of genotypes was independent of geographical origin of the genotype. | en_US |
