Abstract
Isabgol (Plantago ovata F.) is an important medicinal plant of India and holds
the position as the first ranking foreign exchange earner among the medicinal plants
of India. Thus it is an economically important crop. Yet due to absence of variability
and other inherent difficulties much work on quantitative genetics has not been done.
An ideal genotype is one that combines high yield and stability in its performance
over the years and locations. Knowledge of G x E interaction and stability of
genotypic performance help in selection of ideal genotype. Knowledge on the inter
character association broadly helps to determine the contribution of various characters
to seed yield and thus to identify selection criteria. The present study was envisaged to
investigate the stability and character associations in this crop.
