A set of 31 grape cultivars were subjected to study the correlations and yield contributing characters. Fruit yield was significantly correlected with bunches per vine, bunch weight and berries per bunch. Partitioning of these correlations - path analysis revealed the effect of bunches per vine, bunch weight and 100 seed weight on yield to be followed by berries per bunch and seed per berry. Based on these results, it has been concluded that yield is subscribed mainly by bunches per vine, bunch weight and berries per bunch.
