Abstract
A field experiment was conducted to study correlation and path analysis in finger millet [Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn]. Total 158 genotypes of finger millet were sown in a randomized block design with two replications during kharif 2017 at College of Agriculture Badnapur Dist. Jalna Maharashtra. The correlation study was undertaken in 158 genotypes of finger millet in order to find out interrelation of different yield components at genotypic and phenotypic level. The genotypic and phenotypic correlation coefficient for fifteen characters seed yield per plant had significant positive association with thousand grain weight, flag leaf sheath length, finger length, finger width, flag leaf sheath width, flag leaf blade width, finger number per panicle, calcium content and iron content is mainly because of increase in one or more of the above characters and selection of genotypes on the basis of these traits will be effective for yield improvement. Path coefficient analysis was carried out to find out the direct and indirect contribution from each of the characters towards seed yield per plant, path coefficient analysis. The genotypic correlation coefficients are being more important only partitioned to direct and indirect effects. The positive direct effect on seed yield per plant were observed for days to 50 per cent flowering (0.1543), flag leaf sheath length (0.1194), flag leaf blade width (0.1351), finger number per panicle (0.2248), finger length (0.1352), finger width (0.1207), days to maturity (0.0334), thousand grain weight (0.1621), calcium content (0.1621) and iron content (0.0283).
