Abstract:
Estimation of genetic components of variability was done by taking into consideration twenty nine genotypes of rice collected from diverse locations. Analysis revealed that plant height exhibited high estimates of GCV and PCV preceded by number of tillers and effective tillers per plant, number of spikelets and number of grains per panicle and grain weight per panicle. Heritability was higher for days to 50% flowering followed by days to maturity, plant height and panicle length which suggested that these traits would respond to selection owing to their high genetic variability and transmissibility.
Keywords:
GCV, genetic advance, heritability, PCV, rice.
