Correlation and path coefficient analysis in thirty six hybrids of pointed gourd indicated that yield per plant was positively correlated with number of fruits per plant at both genotypic and phenotypic levels. Path coefficient analysis revealed that maximum weightage should be given to number of fruits per plant, days to first picking, average fruit weight and number of branches per plant for improvement of yield in pointed gourd.
