An experiment was carried out with 30 basmati genotypes including 3 checks, were raised in randomized block design with three replications, to determine the inter-relationships among yield components and their direct and indirect contributions towards seed yield. The genotypic correlation coefficients were higher in magnitude than phenotypic correlation coefficients which revealed a strong inherent association between various characters under study and the phenotypic expression of correlations was lessened under the influence of environment. | Association studies for yield and its component traits in Basmati genotypes of Himachal Pradesh, India
