Description |
Thirty six genotypes of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum ) were studied at Jobner (Rajasthan) for their genetic divergence following 0' analysis. The study indicated that the genotypes were grouped into six dusters and there was lack of parallelism between genetic and geographic diverSity. Intra duster distance was highest in cluster I followed by cluster 11. Inter duster distance was maximum between cluster IV and 11 followed by III and It Among the 10 characters studied for genetic divergence, fat content contributed the maximum accounting for 703% of total divergence, followed by plant height (8.6%). The study indicated that for obtaining heterotic response as well as better segregants, inter-mating between genotypes of diverse clusters may be undertaken in breeding programm |
