Abstract:

Correlation studies indicated that ear length, ear girth, Number of kernel rows per ear, Number of kernels per row, 100 kernel weight, Shelling percentage, Crude protein content, tryptophan and lysine contents exhibited significantly positive correlations with grain yield. Path coefficient analysis indicated that Shelling percentage, ear girth, ear length, 100 kernel weight exhibited the highest positive direct effects both at genotypic and phenotypic levels and hence these traits play an important role in generating the high yielding genotypes through breeding programmes.


Keywords: Quality protein Maize, Yield, Quality parameters
