Abstract Thirteen botanical varieties and 2 cultivars were used in the experiment with NCD Ⅱ genetic design to analyze the genetic correlation for 5 characters in cucumber. The result indicated that the combinations of F 1 (WI2870× hardwickii) and F 1 (WI2870× sikkimensis) had respectively the most fruits and highest yield in plot average,and they also had the most laterals;the genetic correlation coefficients of lateral number with flower date,fruit number and yield were:r=0.7741 ** ;0.7290 ** ;0.8...
