The phenotypic correlation and path analysis coefficient for grain yield and its components in four local maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes


Abstract in English

The present investigation was undertaken to estimate phenotypic correlation and path coefficient analysis for grain yield and its components in maize. Four local genotypes of yellow maize were evaluated in 2008 and 2009 growing seasons at two locations i.e.
