This research was conducted at two distinct environmentally locations,
Jellien and Al-Somakiate belong to Dara'a Research Center, the General
Commission for Scientific Agricultural Research during 2011-2012 growing
season. 13 garden pea genotypes
were planted according to a randomized
complete block design with three replicates to study the performance of these
genotypes for 10 important quantitative traits and to detrmine the genotypic
and phenotypic coefficients of correlation between the traits studied.
Results showed that there were significant differences among the genotypes
for all traits studied at both distict locations. The genotypic correlation
coefficients were higher than corresponding phenotypic correlations, in
addition, the value and direction of correlation coefficient at both levels were
different from location to another. Green pod yield showed positive and
significant correlations with pod width, harvest index and 10-green pod weight
at Jellien location, and with pod length, pod width, pods number per plant and
10-green pod weight at Al-Somakiate location.
