Variability analysis in an underutilized pseudo-cereal grain amaranth (Amaranthus hypochodriacus L) Yadav Rajendra Kumar* Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur, 492012, Chhattisgarh, India *Email for correspondence: yadavrk98@gmail.com
Online Published on 4 September, 2024. Abstract Twenty seven genotypes of grain amaranth were evaluated for the variability present in the material for yield and its components. The phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) was higher than genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) for all the characters. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance as per cent of mean was observed for stem thickness, number of panicles per plant, seed yield per plant, plant height, number of leaves per plant, number of primary branches per plant and inflorescence per plant, indicating scope for improvement of the characters of interest through hybridization and selection.
