Popis: Grain yield of maize is mostly affected by amount of available water and nitrogen and correlated to yield components. In this 2-years study the influence of different irrigation water amounts (a1=rainfed; a2=60-100% field water capacity (FWC); a3=80-100% FWC), nitrogen fertilizer levels (b1=0 kg*N*ha-1; b2=100 kg*N*ha-1; b3=200 kg*N*ha-1) and hybrids (c1=OSSK515; c2=OS5997; c3=OS5775; c4=OS5885) on grain yield and yield components was tested. Furthermore the correlation analysis as well as direct and indirect path coefficients were used to analyse the connection between yield and yield components (grain number/cob, grain weight, 1000 grain weight, cob length, cob weight) across tested treatments. The influence of all tested factors was significant (P
