Ethiopia is center of origin for Ethiopian mustard (Brsassica carinata). The crop is one of the oldest oil crops and farmers in the highlands of the country grow as a leafy vegetable in their gardens. This study was conducted to assess the genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance components among Ethiopian mustard genotypes for leaf yield and yield related traits. A total of 36 Ethiopian mustard genotypes including five check varieties which developed for seed and oil yield were evaluated for 12 quantitative traits in 6 x 6 simple lattice design at Holleta in 2017/8. The results from analysis of variance revealed the presence of significant difference among genotypes for all quantitative traits. The PCV and GCV ranged from 9.01 to 54.57% and 6.61 to 47.99%, respectively. The lowest and highest values were calculated for ratio of leaf width to length and weight of harvested per plant for both GCV and PCV. The heritability and the GAM values ranged from 53.85 to 89.93% and from 10 and 90.11%, respectively. The lowest and highest values were calculated for ratio of leaf width to length and edible vegetable leaf yield for both heritability and GAM.
