Abstract:
The study was conducted to determine the correlation coefficients among the fruit yield and yield contributing characters in 26 genotypes. The number of fruits per plant, fruit weight, leaf area, and harvest duration all significantly positively correlated with yield at phenotypic and Genotypic levels. The attributes days to 50% flowering, number of internodes per plant, days to first harvest, days to first flower open, fruit length and fruit diameter, however, showed a substantial negative (phenotypic and genotypic) correlation. Therefore, while choosing okra genotypes, primary should be given to improving these traits. The character number of fruits per plant should be considered as the best feature for enhancing fruit yield per plot.
