Abstract

                                The study was undertaken to examine the nature and magnitude of association of seed yickd with other attributes viz., number of branches, number of clusters, number of pods per plant. pod length, number of seeds per pod and 100 seed weight. The seed yield per plant exhibited a high order of positive and significant correlation with number of pods, number of cluster per plant and number of branches per plant and 100 seed weight. Path analysis showed that, the improvement of seed yield could be achieved only through increasing pods per plant.
