Abstract:
The investigation evaluates 35 promising faba bean genotypes for correlation and path analysis. During Rabi season 2021–2022. Genotypes were sown in a Randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. The data was recorded for fifteen quantitative characters. Days to pod initiation, plant height, number of pods/plant, number of clusters/plant, number of seeds/plant, seed yield/plant, and total protein content all significantly and positively correlated with seed yield/plot. Path analysis showed that number of pods/plant, number of clusters/plant, and total protein content all had significant positive direct effects on seed yield/plot.
