Fifteen genotypes were used to studies the genetic variability, heritability, genetic advance, correlation and path coefficient for growth and yield attributing characters in fennel. The highest PCV and GCV were recorded in seed yield per plant, number of secondary branches per plant and number of primary branches per plant. The highest heritability was noticed for seed yield per plant, number of umbelles per plant and number of secondary branches per plant. Plant height, days to 50% flowering and days to first flowering exhibited highest genetic advance as percentage of mean. The seed yield per plant had significant and positive correlation with number of number of secondary branches per plant, plant height, number of umbellates per umbel and test weight. Number of secondary branches per plant, days to 50% flowering, test weight and number of umbellates per umbel had direct effect on seed yield per plant. Therefore, greater emphasis should be given on these characters for genetic improvement of fennel.
