Abstract:
Studios on parameters of variability, correlation and path coefficient analysis of fruit yield
in Abelmoschus caillei L- revealed that characters such as number of branches per plant, number of
nodes per plant, plant height and fruit length had maximum coefficient of variation. Higher values of
heritahility anil genetic advance were simultaneously estimated for fruit yield per plant and fruits per
plant. Yield per plant had hiph positive significant correlation with fruits per plant, fruit length, fruit
weight, plant height and number of intemodes on main stem. Path analysis revealed positive direct
effect on fruit yield per plant through fruits per plant followed by plant height,
