ABSTRACT
This study was carried out to determine the effects of some agronomic characteristics on
grain yield (GY) in 12 oat cultivars by correlation, path and cluster analysis. The GY varied between
2563-4134 kg/ha and the highest GY was obtained from Haskara, Seydisehir and Dirilis cultivars and
the lowest GY was taken from Chekota cultivar. According to the correlation results, positive significant
relationships were found between plant height (PH) with harvest index (H)I and negative significant
correlaltion with panicle length (PL), number of grains per panicle (NGP), thousand-grain weight
(TGW), and total yield (TY). Significant negative relationships among the number of panicles per
square meter (NPSM) with NGP and grain weight per panicle (GWP) have been identified. There was
a significant positive correlation between the PL and NGP. Positive significant relationships between
the NGP with GWP and negative significant relationships with HI have emerged. There is a negative
and significant relationship between HI and TY. According to the results of the path analysis, it was
determined that the highest positive direct effect on GY was provided by the NPSM (P = 0.699, 25.32%),
while the highest negative direct effect was TY (P = -2.190, 36.42%). According to the cluster analysis
results of the characteristics examined, it was understood that the cultivars of oat were 64.96% similar
and 35.04% different.
