Genetic variability parameters were carried out for grain yield and its attributes with a set of 48 genotypes of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) at Wheat Research Station, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh during Rabi 2016-17 in randomized block design with three replications under late sown condition. The characters studied were days to 50 % heading, days to anthesis, days to maturity, grain filling period, number of productive tillers per plant, plant height, spike length, number of spikelets per spike, number of grains per spike, 1000-grain weight, grain yield per plant, biological yield per plant, harvest index, flag leaf area and chlorophyll content. The analysis of variance revealed that mean square due to genotypes was significant for all the traits in late sown condition. A wide range of variation was observed for important yield components. High phenotypic and genotypic coefficient of variations and high heritability coupled with high to moderate genetic advance as per cent of mean was observed for 1000-grain weight and biological yield per plant under late sown condition. | Exploitation of genetic variability in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) germplasms under late sown condition
