Abstract: The present investigation entitled “Studies on the correlation coefficients among yield and yield contributing traits in garlic (Allium sativum L.) Genotypesâ€. The experiment was conducted in Augmented Block Design at Main Experimental Station of Department of Vegetable Science, Narendra Deva University of Agriculture, Narendra Nagar (Kumarganj), Faizabad (U.P.) during Rabi 2015-16. Experimental material for the present study consisted of thirty genotypes. In single plot sized 2.0 X 0.30 cm with the distance of 30 cm row to row and 10 cm plant to plant. Observation were recorded on plant height (cm), leaves per plant, length of leaf (cm), width of leaf (cm), neck thickness of bulb (cm), cloves per bulb, weight of clove (g), length of clove (cm), width of clove (cm), diameter of bulb (cm), total soluble solids (%) and bulb yield per plant (g). The bulb yield per plant had highly significant and positive correlation with Number of cloves per bulb indicated that selection for these traits would be effective for the improvement of bulb yield per plant. The maximum positive direct effect on bulb yield per plant was exerted by number of cloves per bulb, number of leaf per plant and length of leaf. It is suggested that selection for these traits will directly increase bulb yield per plant.
