The experimental material comprised of 12 sesame genotypes of six lines (black and brown seed) and six testers (white seed) of various geographical origin. Crosses were made in ? Line x Tester ? fashion and thirty six hybrids were developed. The 36 F¬1s along with parents were utilized for correlation study to assess the relationship between yield and its components traits. Biometrical data were recorded on twelve quantitative characters viz., days to fifty percent flowering, plant height (cm), number of branches per plant, number of capsules on main stem, number of capsule per plant, capsule length (cm), number of seeds per capsule, height of first node from base (cm), height of first capsule (cm), thousand seed weight (g), single plant yield (g) and oil content (%). Character association analysis revealed that there was a positive significant association of seed yield with number of capsule per plant.
