Abstract
Despite of huge demand for the crop, only limited breeding work has been done and very little attention has been given for its genetic improvement to enhance the productivity level. Before coming out with any superior variety with better yield there is need to periodically check the performance of available germplasm in comparison to best performing variety of that agro-climatic region, the purpose of this study is to identify the high yielding genotypes. A field investigation of twenty five genotypes of cluster bean including one check were evaluated in Randomized Block Design with three replications during Kharif, 2019 at three locations representing three agroclimatic Zones of Telangana i.e., PG Research Block, College of Horticulture, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad (Southern Telangana Zone), JVR Horticultural Research Station, Malyal, Mahabubabad (Central Telangana Zone) and progressive farmers field at Vemulawada, Karimnagar (Northern Telangana Zone) for yield and yield attributing trai
