| dc.description.abstract | The present investigation entitled "Genetic variability and correlation studies in rabi onion" was carried out during rabi season in the year 2018-2019 on the experimental field of Department of Horticulture, Dr. PDKV, Akola. The study was undertaken on twenty-three genotypes of onion using randomized block design with three replications. The observations were recorded on number of leaves, plant height, leaf length, leaf area, neck thickness, bulb diameter, bulb weight, yield per plot, TSS and yield per hectare. The result showed highly significant differences among genotypes for all characters studied. The highest genotypic coefficient of variation as well as phenotypic coefficient of variation was observed for yield per plot. Almost all characters exhibited high heritability (31.364% to 94.071%), genetic advance over mean ranged from 2.966 to 59.442 for all the characters. Correlation studies of yield contributing traits exhibited positive and significant correlation with yield per hectare. Path analysis revealed positive direct effect on yield per hectare through number of leaves, leaf length, leaf area, yield per plot. Hence, these characters may be given consideration while formulating selection indices for the improvement of onion. | en_US |

| dc.research.problem | The proposed study was planned with the objective to investigate the extent of genetic variability and to assess the extent of genotypic, phenotypic and environmental coefficient of variation, expected genetic advance and heritability for bulb yield and its contributing characters and to study the genotypic and phenotypic correlation and path analysis for direct and indirect influence of bulb yield components on bulb yield. | en_US |
