Abstract: A field trial was conducted at Horticultural Research Station, Adilabad of Northern Telangana Zone in Telangana State, India for two consecutive years of 2017 and 2018 with sixteen genotypes of dolichos bean. The study was initiated to study the qualitative and quantitative traits of different genotypes. The experiment was laid by adopting Randomized Block Design with two replications. Significant variations were noticed in the qualitative and quantitative traits among the germplasm. Significant higher leaf length was noticed in ADP-13, highest leaf width and leaflet length in RND-1, raceme length was significantly higher in Pusabeej, no. of flower buds per raceme and no. of nodes per raceme in RND-1, no. of buds per node was highest in ADP-4 and ADP-7. Flower bud length was highest in ADP-3 and ADP-11, flower bud width was highest in ADP-1, no. of pods per plant was highest in ADP-1. Significant higher pod length was observed in RND-1, pod width in Pusabeej, no. of locules per pod was highest in ADP-10, followed by RND-1 and no. of seeds per pod was highest in ADP-10 followed by RND-1. Significant higher pod yield per plant was recorded by RND-1, followed by ADP-7 which was on par with Pusabeej.
