Author(s): Ipsita Panigrahi, DS Duhan and VPS Panghal
Abstract: A field trial was conducted to weigh up the path coefficient analysis between various morphological traits which directly as well as indirectly associated with yield of various bottle gourd genotypes. The research experiment consists of total 37 genotypes conducted at Research Farm of Vegetable Science department, Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar during summer season. Genotypes were sown with three replications following (RBD) randomized block design. The observed data were taken for further statistical analysis. Substantial amount of variability was found for the sixteen morphological traits which were confirmed by the ANOVA (analysis of variance). The characters having positive direct effect on yield per ha are number of primary branches, leaf width, nodes to first female flower, days to first female flower opening, days to fruit harvest, number of fruits per vine, fruit yield per plant and weight of seeds.
