Abstract
Negative correlations among the several components of yield in field beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) impede progress for higher yield when individual components become the direct object of selection. A plan in which the seed number components are held constant, in the genetic context, while selection pressure is placed on the seed size component is proposed as one practical method of overcoming the effects of the negative correlations.
