Abstract: The relationship among plot spike width,plant spread angle and yield traits in 11 wheat varieties was studied.The results showed that the phenotypic and genetic correlations among plot spike width,plant spread angle and yield were all positively significant at 1% level.Path analysis further showed that the total effect on yield of plot spike width and plant spread angle was basically by biomass,harvest index and spike grain weight.Plot spike width,plant spread angle measured simply and can be regarded as important criteria of selecting in high yield breeding.

Key words: Wheat, Plant spread angle, Plot spike width, Yield
