China aster (Callistephus chinensis L. (Nees.)) is a semi hardy annual and commercial flower crop belonging to the family Asteraceae. China aster is a self pollinated crop, but the natural outcrossing is approximately 10 per cent as reported and described floral biology of China aster. The study results revealed that high heritability along with high genetic advance existed in cross viz., AAC-1 × Arka Poornima and Arka Kamini × P G Purple for number of flowers per plant, individual flower weight and flower yield per plant. Thus, these characters could be improved through simple selection procedure due to the presence of additive type of gene action.
