Abstract

                                In the evaluation of senna types during the year 1981-82 the pod yield was significantly correlated with plant height, number of branches, length of racemes, number of pods set per raceme at 100 days, length of pods, yield of pods at 25 days and and sennoside content of pods at 25 days. High GCV estimates was observed for total yield of leaves. Plant height and length of leaves exhibited the highest positive direct effect on leaf yield where as plant height, number of branches and number of pods set per raceme exhibited the highest positive direct effect on pod yield.

Key words : Cassia angustifolia, Evaluation.
