Influence of Morphological Characters on the Yield of Apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) - A Statistical Approach

Discriminate Analysis was carried out to formulate the categorization rule for allocating the apricot tree to "High Yielder Group" and "Low Yielder Group". Factor Analysis method was also applied to extract the basic factors underlying the observed morphological characters of apr...
