Variability and correlation studies were carried out on yield and eight component characters of 190 germplasm accessions of lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) collected in Bangladesh. The characters showing the highest coefficients of variation were seed yield per plant, number of pods/plant, number of primary and secondary branches/plant, while the lowest values for coefficient of variation were shown by time to maturity and number of seeds/pod. Correlation studies showed that seed yield per plant had a highly significant positive correlation with number of pods/plant, number of seeds/pod, number of primary and secondary branches/plant and time of 50% flowering. These characters were also significantly correlated among themselves except for the association between the number of seeds/pod and time to 50% flowering. The result indicated that profusely branched plants with a high number of pods tend to have a higher yield potential
