Correlation Between Traits and Path Analysis For Seed Yield in Cephalaria syriaca Lines

This research was conducted to determined correlation among seed yield with their components and through the path coefficient analysis method, an experiment with 33 Cephalaria syriaca lines and as control, 1 population at Konya-Turkey, in 2010 and 2011. Seed yield revealed in p<0.01 level significant positive association with plant height, head number and oil yield. Also, The highest positive direct effect of oil yield on seed yield was observed followed by plant height and head number.
