Abstract

100 bi-parental progenies developed separately from two diverse populations of fennel were evaluated to determine correlations among seed yield and its components. Seed yield per plant was found to be positively and significantly correlated with branches per plant, umbels per plant, biological yield per plBnt and harvest index in both the populations. It is suggested that seed yield could be improved if selection is practiced for these characters.
