ABSTRACT
The present field experiment resulted that the correlation analysis reported that grain yield plant1 shared positive significant association with days to physiological maturity, crop growth rate at 45 days, leaf area duration at 45 and 75 days, leaf area index at 45 and 75 days, the biomass duration at 45 days, chlorophyll content at 70 days, plant height, number of tillers per plant, number of spikelet per spike, number of grain per spike, 1000 grain weight, biological yield per plant, spike length, proline %, protein % and carbohydrate. So it could be possible to bring about gene up gradation in one character by selection of the other pair. However, grain yield plant-1 reported significant negative association with days to maturity, content at 90 days, RWC at 75 and 90 days, harvest index, this indicates that simultaneous improvement in both the traits were not possible. It may be concluded that rainfed condition had an additive influence on all phenological developments, physiological, biochemical and morphological structural yield attributing parameters. It is also concluded that these genotypes viz., G23, G8, G11, G12, and G19, were promising for seed yield of wheat and its attributes under rainfed conditions, these genotypes also may be further utilized for the development of temperature tolerant wheat varieties for rainfed conditions.
Key words: Wheat, Water logging, Restricted irrigation, Correlations, G23.
