Abstract

A research experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2009–10 at research farm, ZARS Morena (M.P.). Twenty four genotypes lines of mustard were studied for variability, correlations and path analysis. The experiment was conducted in randomized block design with three replications. Results revealed that, number of siliqua/plant and number of seeds/siliqua were the major characters which had highest direct contribution towards yield/plant. Present study revealed that genotype DRMR 283 was identified as promising for number of primary branches/plant, number of secondary branches/plant, number of siliqua/plant and seed yield/plant.
