Twenty five (25) flax type linseed genotypes taken from AICRP on linseed, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur (.) along with three checks (Surabhi, R-552, RLC-92) were evaluated for variability among yield and yield contributing traits in yellow seeded linseed at Raipur (.). Analysis of variance implied that significant differences exist among the genotypes exist for all the characters under study. The magnitude of PCV was higher than the corresponding GCV for all the traits. Close correspondence between phenotypic and genotypic coefficient of variation were observed . sufficient variability among the traits is present among the genotype. Hence, the ample scope of improvement of these traits. The significant genetic variability in any breeding material is a prerequisite as it does not only provide a basis for selection but also provide some valuable information regarding selection of diverse parents for use in hybridization programme. | Assessment of variability among flax type linseed genotypes (Linum usitatissimum L.) of Chhattisgarh plains
