Abstract
In this study, 31 genotypes of gladiolus were examined to provide estimates of genetic variability, analysis of variance, genetic parameters (GCV, PCV, heritability and genetic progress) for thirteen different characters. The research trial was conducted at the crop research Center, Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, School of Agriculture, ITM University, Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh using RBD design. According to the analysis of variance, 31 genotypes had notable variations for each character. Heritability estimates ranged from 22% to 99%. While the highest heritability 99% was predicted for the spike initiation, the character number of shoots per corm was expected to have the lowest heritability 22.76%. The percentage of genetic advances ranges from 24.25% to 69.41% of the mean. The highest and lowest percentages of the mean genetic advance were found for plant height 51.77% and the number of shoots per corm 0.79% .
