Abstract:
The investigation was laid out in RBD with three replication during kharif- 2016 at the Horticulture research farm, Department of Horticulture SHUATS, Allahabad located in South-East part (Zone 4) of Uttar Pradesh. Green pod yield per plant was significantly positive correlated with 100 seed weight, pod length, pod width, pod per inflorescence, seeds per pod, pod weight, vine length, number of green pod picking and days to last green pod harvest, at genotypic as well as phenotypic level. Hence direct selection for these traits may lead to the development of high yielding genotypes of Dolichos bean. Inflorescence length exhibited highly significant and positively correlated with number of flowers per inflorescence, days to last green pod harvest. Number of flowers per inflorescence exhibited highly significant and positively correlated with number of pods per inflorescence. Number of flowers per inflorescence exhibited highly significant and positively correlated with number of pods picking, green pod yield per plant, 100 seed weight.
