- Association GMP correlated positively and significantly with Yp and Ys.
- Association STI correlated positively and significantly with Yp and Ys.
- Observation RFG5*AF80 was identified as drought resistant and high yielding.
- Observation G-543 was identified as drought resistant and high yielding.
- Observation Farokh was identified as drought resistant and high yielding.
- Association Grain filling rate, duration, and water use efficiency together explained 97.0% of seed-yield variation.
- Association Grain filling rate had a high positive direct effect on seed yield.
- Association Grain filling duration had a high positive direct effect on seed yield.
- Association Water use efficiency had a low direct effect on seed yield.
- Recommendation The authors recommend total grain filling rate and duration as indirect selection criteria for seed yield, especially in early generations.
- Recommendation The authors also consider the indirect water use efficiency effect through grain filling duration promising for selection.
