ABSTRACT
The experimental material consisted of 20 accessions which were evaluated for the correlation and direct and indirect effect of different characters in fenugreek. The observations were recorded on days to 50 per cent flowering. Plant height, number of primary branches per plant, pods per plant, and seeds per pod, pod length. 1000-seed weight and seed yield per plant. The association analysis revealed that the seed yield per plant was positively and significantly correlated with number of primary branches per plant, pods per plant, pod length and 1000-seed weight and negatively and significantly associated with days to 50 per cent flowering. While, non-significant association was observed for plant height and seeds per pod. Path coefficient analysis revealed that traits such as pods per plant, 1000-seed weight and number of primary branches per plant were the characters for the selection of high yielding lines as they exerted positive direct effect as well as showed positive correlation with seed yield. While days to 50 per cent flowering showed negative and direct effects on seed yield per plant. Hence, it is suggested that these accessions be tested in multiplication trial to confirm their superiority and may also be used as parents in hybridization programme to develop high yielding varieties.
