Abstract: The correlation and path analysis of 13 characters of wax gourd were carried out.The results showed that the length of fruit,compactness,width and average weight of fruit existed evident relativity to yield.Compactness was the most important component factor to the fruit weight and total yield.Fruit length contributed the most to the yield.Significant positive correlation were observed between fruit weight,fruit length and compactness,while significant negative correlation were observed between cavity of fruit and fruit weight.

Key words: Wax gourd, Genetic relativity, Path analysis
