recommendation. Ten plants from each accession were selected to record data on days to flowering, days to
maturity, plant height (cm), number of primary branches, number of secondary branches and number of capsule
per plant. Seed yield (kg/ha) was recorded on plot basis. Descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation coefficients
were determined using AGROBASETM software (Agronomix Software Inc., Canada).
