Diallel Analysis for Rain Check in Tomato

Diallel Analysis for Lycopene Content in the Hybrids Derived from Different Colored Parents in Tomato

Lycopene is a red pigment in tomato with purported antioxidant properties. As the amount of lycopene has been reported to differ in different colored tomatoes or even absent in non-red tomatoes, the objective of this study was to investigate the inheritance of lycopene content and the color parameters of hybrids using a 10 parent diallel excluding reciprocals. Parents differed in general combin...

Diallel Analysis Using Sas

A set of crosses produced by involving 'n' lines in all possible combinations is designated as diallel cross and the analysis of such crosses is known as diallel analysis. Such an analysis provides information on (i) the nature and amount of genetic parameters and (ii) general and specific combining ability of parents and their crosses, respectively. The two main approaches being followed for d...

A diallel analysis of height in wheat

Biplot Analysis of Diallel Data.

Diallel crosses have been used in genetic research to determine the inheritance of important traits among a set of genotypes and to identify superior parents for hybrid or cultivar development. Conventional diallel analysis is limited to partitioning the total variation of the data into general combining ability (GCA) of each genotype and specific combining ability (SCA) of each cross. In this ...

Diallel analysis of growth traits in mice.

Two replications of a complete diallel cross experiment were performed among four partially inbred lines of mice. These inbred lines originated from a random-bred ICR strain and were produced by 12 generations of full sibbing (F congruent to 92%). Individual body weight was recorded for each animal at 12, 21, 42 and 56 days of age. Body weight gain traits were examined for intervals 12-21, 21-4...
