Abstract
Forty nine genotypes of pigeonpea representing the broad spectrum of variation were assessed for twelve characters using principal component analysis and cluster analysis. These genotypes were grouped into 8 clusters by using cluster analysis. Principal component analysis identified five principal components with eigen values more than one which contributed 80.10 per cent of the cumulative variance. The genotypes LRG-41 and SM-97, MRG-1001, WRG 51-Y, RST-16 and ICP 7035 were selected from the above analysis appeared to be desirable for inclusion in crossing programme aimed for improvement of pigeonpea.
