VARIABILITY AND CHARACTER ASSOCIATION OF METRIC TRAITS IN YELLOW GRAINED SORGHUM

Abstract

Variability and character association were studied for ten characters in 18 yellow grained genotypes of sorghum. The study indicated that selection programme keeping plant height at a desirable level and making selection for number of leaves and leaf breadth is ideal for improving both grain and straw yields in the yellow grained sorghum.
