Abstract
The present experiments was conducted during Rabi 2015-2016. The data were recorded on seventeen quantitative characters. Analysis of variance revealed highly significant differences for seventeen quantitative characters except flag leaf width. Number of spike per plant showed relatively high GCV and PCV estimates. High estimates of heritability in broad sense were observed for plant height, number of grains per plant, flag leaf length harvest index, and biological yield. High estimates of genetic advance as % of mean observed for number of grain per plant, harvest index, number of tillers per plant, grain yield per plant, biological yield, peduncle length, flag leaf length, test weight, spike length, spikelet per spike, number of grain per spike, grain filling period and flag leaf width. Correlation studies revealed that seed yield per plant at genotypic and phenotypic level was positively significantly correlated with plant height, flag leaf length, flag leaf width, peduncle length, spikelets per spike, spike length, number of grains per spike, test weight, harvest index and biological yield. These characters can be used as selection indices for bread wheat yield improvement.
