Development of micronutrient enriched staple foods is an important breeding goal in view of the extensive problem of ‘hidden hunger’ caused by micronutrient malnutrition. Iron and zinc are micronutrients essential to the human diet but are in deficient supply to many to many in the Tropics. In an effort to this problem through genetic improvement, field trials of Rice (60 Genotypes) were conducted at Jagtial during kharif 2014 to study the Association and path analysis. No significant correlation was reported between seed yield / plant and its quality parameters including grain dimensions and nutrient traits both at phenotypically and genotypically. | Correlation and path analysis studies of quality parameters in rice genotypes
