Sunfl ower holds a great promise because of its short duration, wider adaptability and superior quality oil. Ninety
sunfl ower inbred lines from different agro-ecological origins were evaluated to study the genetic divergence for
seed yield and its components. Based on D2 values, the 90 inbred lines were grouped into 8 clusters indicating
considerable amount of genetic diversity. The character, seed fi lling percentage contributed maximum towards
genetic divergence, followed by hull content and seed yield per plant. The genotype, AKSFI-54-3 exhibited
the highest value of genotypic worth followed by EC-601957, RHA-3, RHA-859, AKSFI-33, EC-623015 and
EC-601767. Mating among these genotypes shall be worthwhile to further expand genetic variability among
populations and for selection of elite inbreds through convergent improvement for seed yield and its components
for developing superior hybrids and/or elite populations through recurrent selection for composite varieties.
