Genetic variability studies in amaranthus (Amaranthus spp.)
An investigation was carried out to estimate the nature and extent of genetic variability among twenty Amaranthus genotypes (Amaranthus spp.) under a randomized block design during the year 2019-20. The phenotypic coefficient of variation was higher than the genotypic coefficient of variation fo...

An investigation was carried out to estimate the nature and extent of genetic variability among twenty Amaranthus genotypes (Amaranthus spp.) under a randomized block design
during the year 2019-20. The phenotypic coefficient of variation was higher than the genotypic coefficient of variation for all the traits. High genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) and phenotypic coefficient variation (PCV) was observed for leaf area, leaf area index, leaf area duration, AGR, dry weight of leaf per plant, specific leaf weight, speed of germination, chlorophyll content and ascorbic acid (vitamin C). Moderate GCV and PCV were observed for leaf length, leaf width, petiole length, dry weight of stem per plant, leaf: stem ratio and foliage yield per plant.
