Genetic variability, character association and path coefficient analysis in determinate F5 progenies of Indian bean [Lablab purpureus (L.) Sweet]

The experiment was carried out to determine the genetic variability parameters and character associations for eleven quantitative traits in Indian bean genotypes. It revealed a significant amount of present among these Seed yield per plant had high Genotypic coefficient variation (GCV) Phenotypic (PCV) values, showing potential improvement by selection. Racemes plant, pods raceme, pods pod weight had moderate GCV PCV values. There heritability combined with advance weight seed plant. Plant height, were significantly positively associated Pods most positive direct effect on followed racemes weight, length, seeds pod. Therefore, selection such is advised bring about beans.
