Abstract: The present investigation was carried out to find out the variability, heritability and genetic advance in chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) at the College of Horticulture, Bidar. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design. All the treatments were randomly distributed among the plots and were replicated two times. Transplanting of seedlings was done at spacing of 60x45 cm. The observations were recorded on five plants per plots for days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity plant height, number of branches per plant, number of fruits per plant, fruit length, fruit width, test weight and yield per plant. The genotypes GCA-1 has recorded significantly higher yield per plant of 638 g, while lower yield per plant was recorded in GPM-41 of 79 g. Number of branches per plant (13) was noticed in Pant C-1 and maximum number of fruit per plant was noticed in genotype Nalchatii (37.50).
