Abstract: In sixteen genotype of mungbean phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) was higher than that of genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) for all the characters under study. The highest estimates of heritability coupled with higher genetic advance were obtained for the characters number of pods per plant, pod weight per plant, number of cluster per plant, number of primary branches and yield per plant. It shows that genotypic variance for their characters are probably due to high additive genetic effect. Therefore, the selection based on phenotypic performance of these characters would be useful for achieving desired results. Plant height, number of primary branches, number of cluster per plant, number of pod per cluster, number of pod per plant, Pod length (cm), and 100 seed weight were positively and significantly correlated to yield per plant at both genotypic and phenotypic level.
