Phenotypic correlation, path coefficient and multivariate analysis for yield and yield-associated traits in groundnut accessions

Yield is a complex quantitative trait largely influenced by the environment. Direct selection for grain yield is less efficient in improving groundnut productivity. The selection efficiency can be enhanced by exploiting the relationship between yield and its related traits. Moreover, the use of gene...
