Estimation of Correlation and Path Analysis for Quantitative Traits in Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp).

The experiment included 20 cowpea genotypes with three replications in a Randomized Block Design. study was carried out to estimate the genetic variability, advance, correlation coefficient analysis and yield contributing traits, direct indirect effects of component on through path analysis. variance revealed existence all hence data 17 traits which showed significant differences among entries were subjected further statistical Maximum Genotypic variation Phenotypic for biological harvest index recorded. At phenotypic genotypic levels, seed per plant had high positive connection Peduncle length, Number secondary branches, seeds pod, pods plant, Biological yield, Harvest index. Days 50% flowering, 100 - weight effect at both levels. Genotypes IC 259106, EC 58905, 202797, KASHI KANCHAN, 202803 10854 found be superior plant.
