Abstract

A study was carried out in mungbean Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek) with eight 'lines' and four 'testers' crossed in a Line x Tester design toestimate mean, range, genotypic and phenotypic coefficients of variation, heritability and genetic advance for 13 trait viz., days to 50 %flowering, days to maturity, plant height, number of branches per plant, number of clusters per plant, number of pods per cluster, number of podsper plant, pod length, number of seeds per pod, 100 seed weight, harvest index, protein content and single plant yield. High heritability coupledwith high genetic advance as per cent of mean were observed for plant height, number of branches per plant, number of clusters per plant, numberof pods per cluster, number of pods per plant, 100 seed weight, harvest index and single plant yield confirming the additive gene action.
