Abstract

                                Phenotypic and genotypic coefficients or variation, neritably toroad sense) and genetic advance were assessed in 45 genotypes of muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.). The differences between the genotypes were highly significant for all the 20 characters studied. The heritability estimates were invariably moderate to high for all the chara- cters studied High heritability along with high genetic advance as percentage of mean was observed for sutures, netting. shape index. flesh thickness, average weight per fruit, total id per plant and titratable acidity. Hence, these traits are the most suitable for further improvement through selection.
