Pisum sativum var. hortense L., the garden pea or green pea, belongs to the legume family, viz., fabaceae. It is a cool season vegetable crop cultivated worldwide mainly for its immature seeds and pods for vegetable purpose as well as for various processed productsThe contribution of different traits towards the genetic divergence aids in the selection of suitable parents. Amongst the 14 characters studied, the important trait with highest contribution towards genetic divergence is days to first flowering (31.16%) followed by plant height (28.99%), average pod weight (25.72%) and weight of seeds per pod (7.61%) while remaining characters have negligible effect.the maximum inter-cluster distance was observed between clusters II and IV. If a crossing attempt was made between the genotypes of these clusters, it may yield maximum heterosis or desirable segregants. Among the studied traits; days to first flowering, plant height, and average pod weight had the maximum contribution towards genetic diversity while others had negligible contribution towards genetic divergence Not Available |
