The genetic variability and correlations were worked out in forty two F progenies of the diallel crosses of seven parental varieites of lucerne for four characters. Analysis of variance revealed highly significant differences for all the characters. Seed yield expressed a maximum genotypic coefficient of variability and genetic advance as per cent of means with low heritability values, whereas plant height recorded the maximum heritability value. Green fodder yield was significantly and positively correlated with seed yield, branch number and plant height.
Keywords: Lucerne, Variability, Correlation.
