content in grains. Fourty genotypes were evaluated in high altitude region to determine the correlation and path&#13;
coefficient among the yield and yield attributing traits. Correlation analysis evinced that grain yield per plant had&#13;
positive significant correlation with agro-morphological traits viz., plant height, days to flowering, days to maturity,&#13;
number of nodes, stem diameter, length of flag leaf, width of flag leaf, length of inflorescence, width of inflorescence,&#13;
length of lower racemes, number of racemes and thousand grain weight. The trait length of peduncle alone&#13;
expressed negative significance with grain yield. The path coefficient estimation indicated that stem diameter had&#13;
exposed high magnitude of direct effect on grain yield. Henceforth, the direct selection based on the flawless&#13;
relationship between grain yield and these traits would benefit in selecting high yielding genotypes.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Millets</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc">Genetics and Genomics</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc">Food and Nutrition</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc">Gene Bank</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2020-04</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Article</mods:genre></mods:mods>
