Current research wasconducted to analyze the coefficient and distribution of direct and indirect influence of yield components and earliness characteristics in wheat genotypes. Both experiments were carried out at the Pot House of the (NIA Nuclear Institute of Agriculture, Tandojam)(Latitude: 25.433. Longitude: 68.533), the experiment was established as a randomized complete block design (RCBD). Therewere six varieties of wheat, namely IBWSN1010, IBWSN 1025, TD1, ESW9525 Chakwal86 and Khirman, which were used to study the correlation coefficient between morphological and physiological traits. The study was based on fifteen (15) morphologically and physiologicallytraits that were observed. The analysis of variance showed significant differences between the characteristics of the varieties. The ESW9525 showed better performanceforall morphological and physiological traits. The correlation and the coefficientanalysisshowed that the days to maturity and the days to growth predicted significant positive predictions related to the height of the plant (cm) and the length of the ear. Days to75% heading and days to 75% maturity showed negative and positive effects forosmotic potential, relative water content in% and total chlorophyll content in%. Plant height (cm) had negative and positive and significant withtiller plant-1. Therefore,in our research trial,variety ESW9525 may be favorable for hybridization in orderto produce a promising and drought tolerant wheat cultivar
