Correlation and Path Coefficient Analyses of Seed Yield Components in the Narbon Bean (Vicia narbonensis L.)

The purpose of this research was to evaluate phenotypic correlation coefficents between seed yield per plant and some yield components, and to determine the direct and indirect effect of 6 components on seed yield per plant in narbon bean (Vicia narbonensis L.) lines. The research was conducted in the area of the Field Crops Research Training Center of the University of Çukurova, in Adana, Turkey, in the 1996/97 and 1997/98 crop years. The randomized complete blocks design with 3 replications was used. Positive and statistically significant (p
