Abstract
The present study was undertaken with 30 wheat genotypes during Rabi 2014-15 in randomized block design having three replications at Field Experimentation Centre of Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Allahabad School of Agriculture, SHIATS to identify the suitable bread wheat genotypes and to assess the magnitude of genetic variability parameters for different quantitative traits in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The mean performance of genotypic SHBW 131, SHBW 132, SHBW 137, SHBW 153 and SHBW 154 was recorded for, days to maturity, plant height, spike length, 1000 grain weight, and grain yield per plant, respectively. The analysis of variance revealed highly significant differences studied. Twelve traits were included in the study. Number of grains spike, biological yield, harvest index, plant height and number of tillers moderate estimates for PCV & GCV. Number of grains spike, flag leaf width, biological yield /plant and harvest index. High heritability along with high genetic advance as percent of mean was recorded for plant height and harvest index.
