Correlation and presence of genetic interactions was studied using F2 and F3 generations in two cowpea crosses for yield and its component traits. Most of the characters studied were positively skewed and were being governed by several genes indicating quantitative inheritance. Variance, skewness and kurtosis have also indicated that homozygosity has increased from the generation to generation in cowpea crosses. Cross A (C-152 × V-16) was found better than crossB (C-152 × V-57817) in providing high yielding segregants displaying parental diversity. | Genetic association estimates using third and fourth degree statistics in early segregating generations of cowpea
