Abstract


A study of the morphological features and yield components relative to the yield of grain and straw of Hybrid pearl millet (Var. HB 1) was undertaken to evolve predi- ction formulas for grain and straw yields. The strongest relationship exists between yield of grain and straw while plant height, productive tillers and length of the ear also. make some significant contribution to the grain yield. In the case of straw, plant height seems to contribute most, followed by length and diameter of main ear and diameter of the fourth node.
