چکیده

The objective of the present study was to correlate the genetic distances (GD) of single cross hybrids with yield, heterosis and specific combining ability (SCA) in the double cross hybrid synthesis. For this, 10 single cross commercial hybrids were used from different companies, and all the possible double hybrids were synthesized by a complete dialell. The hybrids were assessed in 15 locations in the 2005/2006 agricultural season, using the randomized complete block design with three repetitions. DNA was extracted from the single cross hybrids and 20 simple sequence repeat primers were used, nine of which were linked to the quantitative trait loci. It was ascertained that the single hybrids were superior in general to the double cross hybrids and that yield was highly correlated with heterosis and SCA (r = 0.75 and 0.82, respectively). There was no significant correlation between yield and GD (r = 0.25), but this index was at the limit of significance. There was a medium correlation between GD and heterosis (r = 0.40) and GD and SCA (r = 0.38). The intergroup hybrids placed by genetic grouping were generally more productive than intragroup hybrids, and the hybrids with GD greater than 0.84 had the maximum heterosis and SCA. It was concluded that the markers were efficient in placing hybrids in different heterosis groups and were also useful in eliminating the most negative heterosis and SCA.

Estimation of Combining Ability and Gene Action for Agro-Morphological Characters of Rapeseed (Brassica Napus L.) Using Line×Tester Mating Design

Combining ability effects were estimated for different agronomic characters in line × tester crossing program comprising 21 hybrids produced by crossing 7 lines and 3 testers. Parents and hybrids differed significantly for general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) effects, respectively. The variance due to GCA and SCA showed that gene action was predominantly additive...

Study on Combining Ability and Gene Effects Estimation in Some Sweet Corn Inbred Lines (Zea mays L. var saccarata) by Line × Tester Method

In breeding programs determination of gene effects and general and specific combining ability for screening of test crosses is necessary. In order to estimate the genetic variance components and the general and specific combining ability of sweet corn lines, an experiment was conducted using 8 sweet corn S6 inbred lines (including 4 maternal and 4 paternal lines) by line × tester mating design ...

Diallel crosses of six breeding inbred lines of corn (Zea mays L.) were used to estimate combining abilities, heterosis and some other genetic parameters for yield and some of its components. Parents, 15 F1 crosses and 4 filler genotypes, were evaluated in a 5×5 simple lattice design. For all the traits studied, except seed length, the efficiency of lattice design was less than one. Therefore, ...
