- Association Green cob yield of sweet corn hybrids had the highest positive significant genotypic correlation with green cob length, followed by green cob girth and number of kernels per row.
- Association Green cob yield was significantly and positively correlated with plant height, leaf length and leaf breadth.
- Association Green cob yield was significantly and positively correlated with non reducing sugar and total sugar.
- Association Days to 50 per cent tasseling, days to 50% silking and days to green cob harvest had significant negative association with green cob yield.
- Association Total soluble solids had a positive relationship with total sugar among quality traits.
- Association Total sugar had a negative association with starch.
