Abstract

Forty five crosses in F₁ generation of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were used for studying the character association among grain yield and its related characters. The results showed that the number of grains per spike, grain weight per spike and number of productive tillers per plant were significantly and positively associated with grain yield per plant in parents and F₁ cross combinations.
