Genetic variability studies in sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam) genotypes under hill zone of Karnataka, India

The present investigation was undertaken to estimate the genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance for growth and yield parameters among 30 genotypes of sweet potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.] in a randomized block design with two replications during rabi 2017-18 at College of Horticulture, Mudigere, Karnataka. Analysis of variance revealed highly significant difference among the genotypes was observed for all the growth and yield parameters.
