ABSTRACT
The present study was undertaken with the objective to determine the degree of association between grain yield and yield attributing traits in Swarna x Type 3 RIL population of rice. 100 RIL populations were evaluated for identifying their efficiency with respect to eight characters. The correlation studies revealed that grain yield per plant showed strong positive significant association with plant height and 1000-seed weight. Positive non- significant association of grain yield per plant was observed with days to 50 per cent flowering, panicle length, number of filled grains per panicle.
Key words: Rice, Food crop, Yield, Productivity
