Combining Ability, Maternal Effects, and Heritability of Drought Tolerance, Yield and Yield Components in Sweetpotato
Knowledge on gene action and trait expression are important for effective breeding. The objective of this study was to determine the general combining ability (GCA), specific combining ability (SCA), maternal effects and heritability of drought tolerance, yield and yield components of candidate sweetpotato clones. Twelve genotypes selected for their high yield, dry matter content or drought tol...
متن کاملGenetic analysis and association of simple sequence repeat markers with storage root yield, dry matter, starch and β-carotene content in sweetpotato
Molecular markers are needed for enhancing the development of elite sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam) cultivars with a wide range of commercially important traits in sub-Saharan Africa. This study was conducted to estimate the heritability and determine trait correlations of storage root yield, dry matter, starch and β-carotene content in a cross between 'New Kawogo' × 'Beauregard'. The st...
متن کاملAn estimation of the combining ability of barley genotypes and heterosis for some quantitative traits
ABSTRACT- Barley (Hordeumvulgare L.) is one of the most important cereals in the world which is used as human and cattle feed and for malt production. One of the most important steps in a hybrid and selection breeding program of barley is the selection of suitable parents with high general (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) for grain yield. In order to estimate the combining ability and...
متن کاملestimation of heritability and heterosis of some agronomic traits and combining ability of rice lines using line × tester method
in order to determine combining ability, heritability and heterosis of some agronomic traits in rice, 4 pure lines were crossed with 2 cytoplasmic male sterile testers. parents and their f1 progenies arranged in rcb design with three replications. analysis of variance showed significant differences among genotypes for all traits, except for filled grains/panicle. furthermore, the crosses effect...
متن کاملHeterosis and Combining Ability for Earliness and Its Related Traits in Cotton (gossypium Hirsutum L.)
Cotton is one of the most important commercial crops in India, playing a key role in national economy. Short duration and high yielding varieties are always required for better quality and lint production. Early maturing crops avoid disease and pest epidemics due to which plant breeders have positioned adequate pressure on the development of early maturing crop plants (Singh, 2004). Term earlin...
