A study on genetic variation in some of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) genotypes in northern hill zone of Chhattisgarh
Author(s): RK Yadav
Abstract: Genetic variations in ten promising genotypes of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) were evaluated at RMDCARS, Ambikapur (IGKV), during rabi 2012-13 and 2013-14. The genotypes were significantly different for all the characters. Phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) was in higher magnitude than the corresponding genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) for seed yield/plant, test weight and number of pods/plant. High heritability accompanied with high genetic advance as percentage of mean were showed for the traits like seed yield/plant, test weight, number of pods/plant and pod length. All these traits indicated preponderance of additive gene action which may be useful for direct selection by attempting crosses programme among these traits.
