Abstract: The study was conducted by collecting seeds from plus trees from areas around Bhiwani, Fatehabad, Bawal and Bhattu in Haryana based on the desirable characters of economic interest. A considerable amount of variation for different morphological characters such as height, clear bole height, girth at breast height etc. was found among twenty one plus trees from Haryana. Ample genetic variation was also observed for field emergence, seedling height, basal diameter, root: shoot ratio etc. among the progenies of the selected plus trees. Among all the progenies, the progeny of PC11 from Bawal was found most outstanding followed by the progeny of PC8 from Fatehabad.
