Abstract

Thirty French marigold genotypes were assessed for 14 characters. There was high genotypic response than corresponding phenotypic response for almost all the characters. Plant height showed highly significant and positive correlation with plant spread (0.802 0.794). Plant spread showed highly significant and positive correlation with stalk length (0.781–0.760) and total yield per plant (0.777–0.749). Number of flowers per plant showed positive correlation with total yield per plant (0.340–0.349), but it showed negative correlation with flower size and weight per flower. Flower size showed significant and positive correlation with weight per flower (0.735–0.665). The weight per flower also showed highly significant correlation with total yield.
