Abstract

The improvement in any crop is proportional to the magnitude of its genetic variability present in the germplasm. Greater the variability in a population, greater is the chance for effective selection for desirable types (Vavilov, 11). Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) has a wide range of variability for various characters, which can be further exploited by breeding. Therefore, the present study was aimed to assess the genetic variability of growth, yield and quality traits in chilli with the help of genetic parameters like phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variation, heritability and genetic advance.
