Abstract:

The present study was carried out for three years, from 2011 to 2013, during the main cropping season, with the goal of finding the relationships between yield-contributing traits and their direct and indirect effects on yield. The experiment was carried out using a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with four replications at two sites. Calculations made included correlation coefficient, direct and indirect effects using ten distinct genotypes and one standard check named, Baruda. The number of fingers per plant (rp = 0.409), stand count at harvest (rp = 0.468), and disease score (rp = -0.444) all had significant positive and negative phenotypic associations. Plant height (0.008), number of tillers per plot (0.053), number of fingers per plot (0.237), and finger length were all positively correlated with grain yield. Thus, from this study correlation and path coefficient analysis were critical in determining which attribute has a direct impact on the yield of finger millet genotypes.
