Abstract: The present investigation conducted to know the association between growth, yield and yield attributing characters. The experiment was conducted with the using of thirty genotypes of garlic, study conducted in randomized block design with three replication. The observations were recorded on characters viz., plant height (cm), leaves per plant, length of leaf (cm), width of leaf (cm), neck thickness of bulb (cm), cloves per bulb, weight of clove (g), Length of clove (cm.) diameter of clove (cm), diameter of bulb (cm), T.S.S (%) and bulb Yield per plant (g). The study revealed that the in general, genotypic correlation coefficients were higher than the corresponding phenotypic correlation coefficients suggesting, a strong inherent relationship in different pairs of the traits. The diameter of bulb, cloves per bulb, length of leaves and plant height have positive and desirable association with bulb yield and selection of these traits would be effective for yield improvement in garlic. The maximum positive direct effect was expressed by diameter of bulb, plant height, leaves per plant and diameter of clove, whereas weight of clove, length of leaf, neck thickness of bulb, TSS, cloves per bulb, length of clove and width of leaf showed negative direct effect on bulb yield per plant at genotypic level. At phenotypic level the maximum positive direct effect was expressed by cloves per bulb, diameter of bulb, neck thickness of bulb, TSS, width of leaf, length of clove, diameter of clove, length of leaf and weight of clove.
