Abstract: Highly significant differences existed among 17 genotypes of linseed. Seed yield per plant was positively associated with all traits, number of seed per pod and number of pods per plant had highly significant positive genotypic correlation coefficent followed by significant positive correlation coefficient of number of branches per plant. The direct effect of number of seed per pod was the highest followed by number of pods per plant and 1000 seed weight. Therefore, improvement of seed yield in the material is possible by using appropriate breeding strategy through selection for number of seed per pod, number of pods per plant, 1000 seed weight and number of branches per plant.
