Abstract

Estimates of genotypic and phenotypic correlations among characters are useful in planning and evaluating breeding programs. A knowledge of the correlations that exist between important characters may facilitate the interpretation of results already obtained and provide the basis for planning more efficient programs for the future. Also, correlations between important and non-important characters may reveal that some of the latter are useful as indicators of one or more of the former....
