Subject(s): Online resources: In: Egyptian Journal of Agricultural Research 2003.v.81(1)Summary: Correlation and path analysis were carried out for 24 lentil genotypes grown in three environments in Egypt (Sids research station in 1997/98 and 1998/99, and Giza research station in 1998/99 season). Season and location showed major effects on the performance of genotypes. Seed yield was positively and significantly correlated with pod and seed numbers, plant height and number of branches/plant, and negatively with flowering duration. Days to 50% flowering was significantly correlated with days to 100% flowering, 50 and 100% podding and days to maturity, indicating that selection for early flowering (50% flowering) is sufficient to identify the earliness in podding and maturity and no need to measure other earliness traits to save time and cost.
