Heritability and interrelationship among yield determining components of soybean varieties

Heritability and interrelationship among yield determining components of soybean varieties

2000

A:PS

Heritability and simple correlation among yield determining components were observed in 86 diverse maturity genotypes of soybean. The heritability value ranged from 29.37% for seeds/pod to 98.98% for maturity. Seed yield were positively and significantly correlated with all characters except pod height. Path coefficient analysis revealed that pods/plant had the direct effect on seed yield followed by 100 seed weight. Pods/plant affected seed yield negatively via indirect effects of plant height, pod height and seeds/pod.
