Abstract:
In this study, an experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of the Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding at Lovely Professional University in Phagwara, Punjab. The experiment evaluated 52 different wheat genotypes along with 5 control samples using an Augmented Block Design. The main objective was to gain a deeper understanding of the factors that have a significant impact on wheat production, by investigating genetic diversity, correlation, and path coefficient analysis. Through this experimental trial, we came to know that selection for grain yield per is done by visualizing the characteristics such as chlorophyll content, biological yield per plant, and harvest index are required for wheat crop improvement.
