The present study was carried out to estimate genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance for 14 yield and yield related traits and 6 grain quality traits in 150 genotypes. The results showed that ANOVA for all the 20 traits under study revealed highly significant differences this indicates that a wide range of variability was present among 150 genotypes. Genetic variability analysis has shown that the variability for the traits namely filled grains, unfilled grains, single plant yield, per day productivity, gel consistency and alkali spreading value was high, for plant height, harvest index and amylose content variability was moderate and low variability was observed for days to 50 % flowering, days to maturity, panicle length and kernel length for the material under study. | Assessment of genetic variability heritability and genetic advance for yield and quality traits in Indica Tropical Japonica derived lines
