Summary: Estimates of phenotypic correlations involving banana production, yield components and other important characters can be found in several articles (1). However, for the same character, it can be identified a positive, negative or null value estimate. This can be explained by the fact that these correlations have been estimated in different genotypes and environments with the use of different methods. In view of this, if possible, new correlations must be estimated to assist the conduction a breeding program.
