Abstract

The method of ‘path coefficients’ has been used for analyzing correlation coefficients between yield of Wheat and its other biometrical characters under four different tree species. This technique helps in establishing the relative importance of various biometrical characters of Wheat, viz. plant population, plant height, number of tillers per plant, grain weight per earhead, and number of effective tillers as determiners of Wheat yield under different species of fruit trees in agroforestry system.
