To study the genetic divergence in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), a set of 96 advanced breeding lines obtained from different crosses was evaluated during kharif 2018 in a Randomized Complete Block Design in two replications. With the help of Mahalanobis's D 2 statistics, the genotypes were grouped into15 clusters. Cluster I was the largest among all clusters comprising 68 lines, Cluster II (11), Cluster V (4) and Cluster XI (2). Remaining Clusters were solitary. | Genetic diversity analysis for quantitative traits in advanced breeding lines of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.)
