Abstract

It is utmost desire for plant breeders to know the extent of relationship between yield and its various components, which will inevitably facilitate selection of desirable characteristics. This research focused on computing the correlation coefficients and path coefficients of yield and its contributing traits in pigeon pea landraces Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.
