Abstract:The present investigation was carried out for correlation studies and path analysis (
Cicer arietinum L.).
Correlation studies showed that
the traits
viz. harvest index, 100 seed weight, number of pods per plant and number of secondary branches per plant recorded a highly positive significant correlation with seed yield at both genotypic and phenotypic level and days to 50% flowering at genotypic level with seed yield.
From path coefficient analysis it is indicated that the characters viz., 100 seed weight, harvest index, number of pods per plant, days to 50% flowering and number of secondary branches per plant showed a positive direct effect on seed yield.
