Variation,heritability in broad sense,genetic gain,coheritability and inter-relationships among 8 traits of foxtail millet were studied.Substantial genetic variability in the stocks was available for different characters Heritability of days to heading and maturity.grain weight .plant height and tiller number was found to be high.and those of ear length.ear girth and grain yield had relatively low values.High genetic grains were expected in tiller number.grain yield.1000 grain weight.days to heading and plant height.
