Abstract
Path coefficients were computed to estimate the contribution of individual characters to yield in cotton. The calculated correlations indicate that boll number per plant, sympodial branches had positive and significant correlation with seed cotton yield at genotypic level. Internodal length had negative but significant genotypic correlatioh. Number of bolls per plant had maximum positive direct effect on seed cotton yield per plant followed by boll weight, whereas, internodal length had maximum negative direct effect on seed cotton yield.
