Abstract
For effecting dependable selection in breeding groundnut varieties suited to kharif
uplands and summer rice fallows, genotypic correlation studies and path analysis were done based
on 18 characters collected from 80 divergent groundnut varieties and the results compared and
contrasted. There are differences in the direction, degree of relationship and relative effects for
important characters on the economic trait on both the situations. Hence, in selecting ideal
genotypes for the two situations, differential considerations had to be given for the component
characters.
