tailieunhanh - Correlation and path analysis for different characteristics in germplasm of niger (Guizotia abyssinica (L.f) Cass)

The present investigation entitled “Correlation and Path Analysis for Different Characteristics in Germplasm of Niger (Guizotia abyssinica () Cass.)” was undertaken during Kharif 2018. The experiment was carried out in Randomized block Design (RBD) with two replications to derive Correlation coefficient and Direct and Indirect effects in 45 germplasm of Niger. In 45 genotypes it has been revealed that, that number of primary branches per plant, number of secondary branches per plant, number of capitula per plant, number of seed per plant, diameter of capitula, 1000 seed weight were good indicators of seed yield per plant along with highly significant correlation in the desirable direction towards seed yield per plant indicated the true and perfect relationship between seed yield and these characters suggesting direct selection based on these character would help in selecting the high yielding genotypes in niger. | Correlation and path analysis for different characteristics in germplasm of niger (Guizotia abyssinica () Cass)
