Studies on parameters of varaibility, correlation and path coefficient analysis of fruit yield in Abelmoschus caillei L. revealed that characters such as number of branches per plant, number of nodes per plant, plant height and fruit length had maximum coefficient of variation. Higher values of heritability and genetic advance were simultaneous estimated for fruit yield per plant and fruits per palnt. Yield per plant had high positive significant correlation with fruits per plant, fruit length, fruit weight, plant height and number of intemodes on main stem. Path analysis revealed positive direct effect on fruit yield per plant through fruits per plant followed by plant height.
