abstract: A global composite collection of finger millet germplasm which included ICRISAT core
collection was evaluated for fifteen quantitative characters in augmented design with four
control cultivars during 2007 rainy season. The objectives were to assess the variability and
association between the characters related to yield. The genotypic variances were highly
significant for all characters except plot yield. Plot yield exhibited the highest range (0.02 – 2.6
t ha-1). The phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variations varied from 9.59 to 57.13% and
11.14 to 64.96% respectively. Heritability estimates ranged from 37.01% for single panicle
weight to 98.34% for days to 50 percent flowering. Plot yield was strongly associated positively
with productive tillers, number of fingers and days to 50 percent flowering. Generally, the
result revealed the existence of variability for the characters studied in finger millet genotypes.
