Description
Forage yield is the resultant of a cumulative effect of its component characters. In the procedure of developing a high forage yielding variety, a determination of major forage yield components appears obligatory for a breeder to gear up an efficient selection programme. Since the manifestations of forage yield components, expectedly, may vary with the change of situations these were, therefore, worked out across the environments artificially created at a single location (Luthra et al., 1974) in Egyptian clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.). The consistency of correlations and path was used as a criterion to single out most important yield component(s).
