| Abstract | ||
| The present investigation was carried out to identify eleven sesame lines during two successive seasons (2016 and 2017). The phenotypic variance (σ2 ᵖ) was greater than the corresponding variance for all studied traits except capsule thickness. The genotypic variance and phenotypic variance values for number of capsules/plant and oil yield/fad., were high over the two years. High broad-sense heritability accompanied with high genetic advance was recorded for No. of branches/ plant, seed yield/plant and seed yield/fad. Five SSR primers were used for fingerprinting of the eleven sesame genotypes generated 19 bands, 10 of them were polymorphic with 53% polymorphism, N.A554 produced one band negative marker in primer SSR1. Line 59-3-1 produced two band markers, one of them negative marker in primer SSR1 and the other positive marker in primer SSR5, while Line 82-7 produced one band positive marker in primer SSR5. | ||
