Abstract:

In order to study genetic variation, heredity-acceptance and relations between agricultural features, 15 genotypes of black-eyed pea were performed according to experimental complete accidental blocks plan with three replicates at Broujerd agricultural and natural resources research center. The result of variance analysis showed that genotypes are of significant difference regarding the features under study implying genetic variation among genotypes. The results from studying simple correlation of features showed that the correlation between single-bush yield and sheath number in the main stalk, sheath length, a hundred-seed weight, sheath weight, sheath number in bush, seed number in sheath, biologic yield, and harvest index was positive and significant and between single-bush yield and sheath width was negative and significant.
