Abstract
Genotypic variability, heritability and genetic advance expressed as percentage of mean for yield and its components were studied in 22 cultivars of mung bean (Vigna radiata). The genotypic and pohenotypic variances were high for plant height (61.39 and 66.19) and number of pods per plant (14.15 and 17.31). Heritability was high for plant height (0.93) and 100-seed weight (C =, 9)whereas it was lowest for number of seeds per pod (0.18). High heritability combined with high genetic advance expressed as percentage of mean for plant height, number of pods per plant and 100-seed weight indicated the additive gene effect on these characters.
