One hundred fifty genotypes of rice bean were evaluated for 12 different yield and yield related traits in augmented design at botany garden, Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Dharwad. The prime objective of current study was to evaluate the extent of association between pairs of characters at phenotypic levels and to know the direct and indirect effect of these characters. The study revealed that seed yield had positive and significant correlation with traits viz., days to maturity, plant height, number of branches, number of clusters, number of pods per cluster, pod length, number of seeds per pod, yield per plant and 100-seed weight. This indicates that selection based on these traits would be more effective. The path analysis studies revealed that days to maturity, number of clusters per plant and plant height had positive direct effect on grain yield
