An experiment was conducted for 12 different traits in bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria (Molina) standl) comprising 45 hybrids obtained by crossing 10 parental lines in diallel mating design to study the correlation and direct and indirect effects of different characters on fruit yield. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design. The overall analysis reveals that fruit yield was positively and significant correlated with fruit/plants. |
