The present correlation study on Neolamarckia cadamba was carried out at the research farm of College of Forestry, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. Twenty candidate plus trees (CPTs) of N cadamba were selected as seed source from twenty different locations of Bihar, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh for the purpose of correlation study of morphological and biomass traits. The study revealed that NPT1 exhibited outstanding performance for morphological and biomass traits in comparison to all other superior tree progenies under greenhouse conditions. The phenotypic and genotypic variance and their coefficient of variability also showed a sizeable variability. This offers a breeder ample scope to undertake screening and selection of seed sources for the desired traits. Phenotypic correlation coefficients among the seedling traits ranged from non-significant -0.234 (P = 0.01) between shoot-root ratio and root dry weight to highly significant 0.963 (P = 0.01) between seedling biomass and shoot dry weight under greenhouse conditions. Therefore, these characteristics could be harnessed in future improvement programme of N cadamba. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
