ABSTRACT
An experiment was conducted to study genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance for 18 different quantitative characters in 12 advanced breeding lines of chilli at College of Horticulture, University of Horticultural Sciences, Bagalkot, Karnataka during the year 2013-14. High degree of variation was observed for all characters studied. The study indicated that the moderate to high genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) and phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) were observed for all the characters, high heritability (broad sense) with high genetic advance as percent over mean was observed for most of the characters except ?-carotene.
Key words :
Chilli, Heritability, GCV, Genetic advance, PCV.
