Studies on Genetic Variability in Gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii Bolus Ex. Hooker F.)

Thirteen genotypes of gerbera were evaluated under naturally-ventilated polyhouse in Completely Randomized Block Design during the year 2011-12 to determine genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance for 15 quantitative traits, based on which selection may be made. Analysis of Variance sh...
