Abstract


Iwenty three groundnut genotypes were evaluated for genetic parameters. High heritability estimates combined with genetic advance were observed for pod and kernel weights indicating that these characters are governed by additive genes. The genetic advance for pod width, L/W ratio, shelling and SMK percentages was low. Seed weight was positively correlated with pod length, breadth, L/W ratio and weight.
