| Popis: | Divergence analysis was carried out among hundred black gram genotypes using Mahalanobis D2 analysis. Among ten characters studied, seed yield per plant (g) contributes maximum to the genetic diversity (33.31%). Black gram genotypes were grouped into 14 clusters. Among this, cluster I had maximum number of genotypes. Maximum intra-cluster distance was found in cluster II and the maximum inter-cluster distance was observed between cluster IV and XI. Cluster XI (VBG 19-002) showed the highest cluster mean for seed yield per plant (g), the number of branches per plant and the total number of pods. Cluster IV (VBG 18-076) had superior mean for days to 50% flowering, plant height (cm) and pod length (cm). Hence, hybridization of genotypes VBG 18-076 (Cluster IV) and Mash 114 (Cluster XII) with VBG 19-002 (Cluster XI) could give wide range of variability in segregating population. |
