The present study was undertaken with the objective to determine the degree of association between yield and it`s component characters and their direct, indirect effects on seed yield in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.). 41 genotypes were evaluated for identifying their efficiency with respect to 10 quantitative characters. Character association studies revealed significant positive association of seed yield per plant with plant height, number of branches per plant, first capsule height, capsules per plant, and 1000-seed weight. This indicated the possibility of simultaneous selection of all these characters for yield improvement. A critical path analysis revealed that the number of capsules per plant, diameter of stem, capsule length, number of branches per plant and plant height directly affected the seed yield per plant. This indicated that direct selection for yield improvement via these traits would be possible Not Available |
