Genetic analysis for yield and stem gall reaction in coriander

Genetic variability, correlation and path coefficient were estimated in 60 genotypes and five checks of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) grown in an Augmented Complete Block Design during Rabi 2020- 21. The high percentage of PCV and GCV were observed for biological yield per plant, seed yield per plot and number of umbels per plant.The high estimates of heritability and genetic advance as percentage of mean were found for biological yield per plant, seed yield per plot, umbels per plant and test weight. Correlation studies revealed that seed yield per plot exhibited highly significant positive correlation with biological yield per plant, test weight, number of umbels per plant, number of seeds per umbellet, plant height and harvest index. Path analysis revealed the highest positive direct effect of biological yield per plant, test weight and harvest index on seed yield per plot.
