Abstract

Genotypic and phenotypic correlation coefficient of taro, (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott.) were estimated for 19 characters. Leaf length, leaf number, LAI, cormel length, corm weight, cormel weight, cormel length showed significant and positive correlation with yield per plant in both genotypic and phenotypic levels.
