Abstract

An evaluation of eighteen germplasms was conducted in Rabi season
2020-21 using Randomized Block Design with three replicationsat
Department of Plantation, Spices, Medicinal and Aromatic Crops, College
of Horticulture, Mandsaur, Rajmata Vijayaraje Scindia Krishi Vishwa
Vidyalaya (M.P.). The phenological characteristics of 18 germplasm
showed that G - MDF-2 took the least amount of time for 50 % flowering3
(45.33 days), 50 % pod setting (53.67) and days to maturity (116.00) as
compared to other germplasm. However, G -Suraj had maximum plant13
height (10.34, 24.61, 49.99 and 92.18 cm) but G -Sehore-12 had highest10
fresh weight (2.27, 9.67, 29.09 and 52.45 g), dry weight (0.32, 3.32, 18.55
and 23.16 g), number of branches (4.33, 7.10, 10.80 and 14.57), leaf area
(131.59, 572.17, 1629.65 and 711.84) and leaf area index (1.09, 3.54 and
3.9) at 30, 45, 60 DAS and at harvest respectively. Whereas, G -Sehore-10
12 had highest number of pods (34.57), number of seeds (22.20), pod
length (12.07 cm), shelling % (72.63), seed yield (27.17) and harvest index
(43.37). While, G -Sarayu had maximum test weight (17.47 g). The highest18
GCV(21.01) and PCV (30.29) were observed for leaf area. Although, the
highest heritability was recorded in plant height (70.66) and test weight
(64.55). The highest genetic advance was recorded in leaf area (139.15)
and plant height (14.66). Whilethe highest genetic advance as a percent of
mean was observed in leaf area (30.03) and leaf area index (27.80).Out of
eighteen studied germplasms, the highest yield was recorded in G -10
Sehore-12 followed by G -Shree and G -Lajwab.
