Abstract
Heherosis , heritability estimates , genetic
advance and dominance estimates were calculated in 7 crosses of mungbean (vigna radiate(l.) WILCZEK) involving 7 parents of which 5 were local and 2 exotic. Varying degrees of variances were observed for 6 characters in 7 crosses . the cross combination viz., NCM 5x type-
77 and NM13-1 x type -77 exhibited high heterotic efforts in either generations and high heritability estimates alongwith high genetic advance for yield and its components . it was concluded that the simple selection should be followed
carefully in large segregating populations of these two cross combinations to find out the transgressive segregants for effective mungbean improvement.
