Abstract:
An experiment involving 18 genotypes of Indian Mustard (Brassica juncea L.) was conducted in randomised block design with three replications, during Rabi 2020. Data were recorded and analysed for fourteen characters. All the 18 genotypes were grouped into 5 clusters using D² statistics. Cluster II, III and IV had equal number of genotypes (5) while, cluster I had 2 genotypes. The minimum number of genotypes (1) was present in cluster V. Maximum intra-cluster distance was found in cluster I while, there was no intra-cluster distance in cluster V. The inter cluster distance was found maximum between cluster II and V followed by cluster IV and V & cluster III and V.
