Ninety five diverse genotypes of sesame were evaluated for variability and heritability estimates in 17 quantitative traits. Close resemblence between GCV and PCV estimates for 100 seed weight, capsule length, capsule breadth, oil content, days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity and seed number per capsule, and high heritibility for these traits indicated that selection for these characters would be much effective. The high heritability and genetic advance as per cent of mean for seed yield revealed predominance of additive gene effects.
