- The study on direct and indirect effects of thirteen different quantitative characters of okra had revealed the presence of very high direct positive effect of days to first flowering on yield plant-1. The traits viz., plant height, nodes plant-1, fruit weight, number of fruits plant-1, nodes at which first flower appeared and duration of fruiting were identified as the important yield determinants through path co-efficient analysis and these traits could be relied upon for selection of high yielding genotypes in okra. The indirect effect of days to first flowering, duration of fruiting, fruit weight, nodes plant-1 and plant height were also found to be positive, indicating their importance in exercising selection.
