Eight F3 populations and one check (JS 335) of soybean were evaluated at the experimental farm of Agricultural Botany Section, College of Agriculture Nagpur during Kharif 2018-19 using randomized block design with 3 replications. The objectives of the study were to investigate the correlations among seven characters of soybean which will be used for the selection of seed yield in early generations. The data regarding seven characters viz., days to first flower, plant height, days to maturity, number of branches plant-1, number of pods plant-1, hundred seed weight and seed yield plant-1 were evaluated for phenotypic- genotypic correlations. Yield plant-1 showed highly significant positive phenotypic and genotypic correlations for the number of pods plant-1(rg=0.840**, rp=0.645) and 100 seed weight (rg=0.877**, rp= 0.738**) which indicates the importance of these characters during selection in the breeding program.
