Correlation and Path Coefficient Analysis in Bird’s Eye Chilli (Capsicum Frutescens L.,) for Yield and Yield Attributing Traits
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Thirty six bird’s eye chili accessions were evaluated in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with two replications at the college of Horticulture, Mudigere (Karnataka). Correlation and path analysis worked out for fifteen characters. In this study, correlation analysis revealed that plant height, number of primary branches per plant, plant spread, total number of fruits per plant, fruit length, fruit with, dry weight of 100 fruits, number of seeds per fruit and fruit yield per plant (g) were positively and significantly associated with yield (q/ha). Path analysis revealed that plant height, plant spread, days to first flowering, total number of fruits per plant, fruit length, dry weight of 100 fruits, number of seeds per fruit, fruit yield per plant and capsaicin content had the positive direct effect on yield. Hence, more weightage should be given to these characters in selection programme of high yielding accessions in bird’s eye chilli.
