Other claims from this paper (6)
- Association Most measured traits showed positive significant association with green fodder yield per plant.
- Association Dry fodder yield had high correlation, 0.953, with green fodder yield.
- Association Leaf length, plant height and leaf number followed dry fodder yield in correlation with green fodder yield.
- Association Plant height had the highest direct effect on green fodder yield.
- Association Leaf length and breadth and leaf stem ratio followed plant height for direct effects on green fodder yield.
- Recommendation The authors recommend emphasizing plant height in selection owing to correlation, direct effect and indirect effect through dry fodder yield.
