Abstract: The study was conducted to estimate the genetic variability, heritability and the expected genetic advance upon selection for all studied characters of F1s hybrids populations. In this we studied about thirteen characters of mungbean crop. The high estimates of genotypic and phenotypic coefficient of variation and high heritability in broad sense along with high genetic advance in percent of mean was recorded for biological yield per plant and seed yield per plant which indicated that these two traits would be ideal traits for improvement through selection in context of present material. Pod Length, Cluster per plant and Pods per cluster recorded moderate PCV and GCV, heritability along with genetic advance. Remaining characters had low to moderate GCV and PCV values or low to moderate heritability to emerge as poor indices of selection. Thus selection for above mentioned traits among these genotypes would be effective in all cases.
