Implication

This field study assesses genetic variability and heritability for yield traits in sunflower genotypes, suggesting effective breeding strategies.

Key Points

  • Significant genetic variability was found for all investigated sunflower traits, indicating diverse breeding options.
  • High phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variation were observed in seed yield per plant, reaching 35.17% and 33.13%, respectively.
  • The study used a Randomized Block Design to evaluate thirty-two sunflower genotypes during the Kharif season.
  • High heritability with genetic advancement indicates additive gene action, which is beneficial for future breeding programs.
