Abstract


Correlation and path analysis involved 40 diverse genotypes of sesamum indicated plant height, branch number, capsule number, cepsule number on main stem, 1000 seed weight, days to full maturity and oil content to be positive association with seed yield per plant. Seed number showed negative non significant association with seed yield per plant. The inter correlations among all the characters except seed number revealed a high association among themselves, Capsule number exhibited maximum positive direct effect on seed yield followed by 1000 seed weight. Plant height, branch number, capsule number on main stem and days to full maturity showed negative direct effect.
