Abstract

Positive, significant (P<0.01) and high magnitude in the estimate of r between percentage of total solid and solid not fat (S.N.F.) as well as percentage of fat and T.S. of milk in the study suggested that selection for percentage of total solid would lead to improvement in percentage of fat and S.N.F and vice-versa through correlation coefficient which further leads to improved selection of animal on the basis of milk constituents traits.
