ABSTRACT
The genotypic correlation coefficients were slightly higher than phenotypic coefficients. Seed yield per plant was highly significant and positively correlated with number of pods per plant, primary branches per plant, hundred seed weight, days to maturity and number of peduncles per plant at both genotypic and phenotypic level, whereas it was significantly and positively correlated with days to first flowering at genotypic level only. Path analysis revealed that, number of pods per plant, hundred seed weight and number of primary branches recorded the highest direct effects in desirable direction. Their association with seed yield was also significant and positive indicating true and perfect association between these traits. Therefore direct selection for these characters would help in isolating high yielding genotypes.
