Variability and Correlation Studies in Groundnut After Hybridization

Abstract

                                To estimate some genetic parameters and correlations in Fe population of a cross involving a spreading and a bunch variety was studied. Heritability estimates were high for fruiting and vegetative nodes per secondary branch. lateral spread and 100-kernel weight. Pod yield was positively and highly associated with number of pods and 100- kernel weight and significantly with fruiting nodes per secondary branch. At genetic level primary branches, secondary branches, fruiting nodes per secondary branch, number of pods and 100-kernel weight were mostly highly associated with each other. Pod yield had positive and highly significant partial correlation with number of pods and 100-kernel weight only and both had the maximum contribution to pod yield.
