PATH ANALYSIS OF CHARACTERS CONTRIBUTING TO DROUGHT RESISTANCE IN GROUNDNUT

Abstract

                                Genotypic correlations were worked out among the six characters related to drought resistance and pod yield in 24 groundnut genotypes. Pod yield was negatively correlated with transpiration rate. Dry matter production had the highest positive direct effect on pod yield. while leaf area had the highest negative direct effect

Key words : Path analysis, Drought resistance, Groundnut, Genotypic correlation
