ABSTRACT

The experiment was conducted at dryland farm of S. V. Agricultural College, Tirupati during kharif, 2021. In the cross Kadiri 6 × J 11, number of primary branches plant-1, number of mature pods plant-1, harvest index, dry haulms yield plant-1, kernel yield plant-1 showed positive significance for pod yield plant-1. Based on the path analysis, kernel yield plant-1 exhibited high positive direct effect with pod yield plant-1 in all six crosses; hence importance should be given in selection process for the improvement of pod yield in groundnut.
