Overview

Evaluation reveals genetic divergence in safflower genotypes based on yield components, highlighting significant traits.

Key Points

  • Seed yield/plant showed the maximum genetic divergence among evaluated safflower genotypes, indicating trait importance.
  • A significant positive correlation was noted between seed yield/plant and 100-seed weight, emphasizing direct effects on yield.
  • Path analysis indicated that 100-seed weight has a maximum direct effect on seed yield/plant, guiding breeding decisions.
  • The study grouped genotypes into four clusters using Mahalanobis D2 statistics, aiding in genetic selection strategies.
