The present research work was carried out at Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari during the summer 2014 to study correlation among quantitative traits and their direct and indirect effect on seed yield in F2 populations (Meha X Pusa Vishal, Meha X GM-4) of mungbean. Correlation analysis revealed that seed yield was significantly and positively correlated with pods per plants and harvest index in F2 population of Meha X Pusa Vishal and with plant height, primary branches per plant, clusters per plant, pods per plant, straw yield per plant and harvest index in F2 population of Meha X GM-4. It indicates that an association of two characters is not only due to genes but also due to their influence of the environment. |
