Abstract


Correlation and path-coefficient analysis were studied in forty three fodder types of cluster bean. In association analysis, the characters leaf weight and stem weight sho- wed high positive associations with both the green fodder yield and dry matter yield. The traits plant height, number of leaflets and leafweight and leaflet length width, and stem weight were positively and significantly associated among themselves. In path analysis the stem weight had high positive effect followed by leaflet length, number of branches and leaf weight. In general, for maximum green fodder yield, selection can be made for leaflet length, stem weight and leaf weight.
