ABSTRACT
The present study comprises 30 elite genotypes of desi cotton as its experimental material. The genotypes were sown at the Cotton Research Station in Sirsa. Correlation coefficient analysis indicated a highly significant positive relationship between seed cotton yield and the yield contributing traits. Lint yield, number of bolls per plant, boll weight, and gossypol content had the most positive and significant correlation with seed cotton yield. The path-coefficient study revealed that the number of bolls per plant, boll weight, and lint yield was important since they had a positive direct influence on seed cotton yield per plant. As a result, selection based on the above-mentioned traits will result in genotypes with high seed cotton yield.
