Variability parameters studies including mean, genotypic and phenotypic variances, coefficients, genetic advance and genetic gain for quantitative and qualitative traits in sweet pepper were conducted at Defence Institute of Bio Energy Research, Pithoragarh, Uttranchal. Significant variation among all the genotypes was recorded for all the characters studied. High heritability along with high GCV and high genetic gain was observed in fruit weight, fruit yield per plant, number of fruits per plant, total chlorophyll and fruit width.
