Popis: | In this experiment, correlation and path analysis in F2 populations of two commercial hybrids i.e., Naga and NS-3 were studied for growth, earliness, yield and quality parameters by using unreplicated trials in College of Horticulture, UHS, Bagalkot, during Jan-March 2018. The results revealed that vine length at 60 DAP, number of fruits per vine, average fruit weight, fruit length, fruit diameter had significant positive correlation with fruit yield per plant, whereas days to first female flowering, days to first male flowering and sex ratio had significant negative association with fruit yield per plant, the associations of these characters is in the desirable direction. Thus, selection for these characters will improve the yield. Path coefficient studies revealed that number of fruits per vine, fruit length and fruit diameter showed direct positive effects on fruit yield per vine, whereas days to first male and female flowering and sex ratio showed direct negative effects on fruit yield per vine. |
