Abstract
The present study was designed to assess the extent of variability,
heritability and genetic advance of 25 groundnut genotypes using randomized
block design with three replications. The observations were recorded on five
randomly selected plants from each treatment and replication of fourteen
different traits. Based on mean performance, high dry pod yield per plant was
identified for the genotype UG-252. Moderate estimates of GCV was recorded for
100- kernel weight followed by dry pod yield per plant and harvest index.
Genetic parameters revealed that high heritability was recorded for oil content
followed by 100- kernel weight and moderate genetic advance as percent of mean
was recorded for dry pod yield per plant.
