Description Genetic diversity was assessed in 60 pearl millet inbred restorers for 10 agro-morphological and six seed quality
traits. High range of variation was observed and trait contribution to genetic diversity depicted that panicle length
contributed the maximum (19.04 %) followed by panicle girth (18.76 %). Based on the clustering pattern, a total of
09 clusters were obtained of which Cluster II was the largest and comprised of 39 inbreds followed by cluster III
with 10. Cluster mean depicted that cluster I, III and IX comprised of potential lines having a desirable mean
performance for the traits studied. Cluster distance was also high among these aforesaid clusters thus suggesting
their use in hybrid development as well as in recombination breeding for generating better inbreds in pearl millet.
