The analysis of variance revealed significant differences for all characters under study. Characters viz., seed yield per plant, days to fifty per cent flowering, number of leaves per plant, plant height, number of branches per plant, number of capsules per plant, test weight, khakhri yield per plant and harvest index had high genotypic coefficient of variance, high heritability and high genetic advance expressed as percentage of mean indicating that phenotypic selection could be effective in improvement of these characters. The estimates for above parameters were low for seed oil per cent except heritability.en-USnullThesis
