inheritance of yield and its contributing characters in rapeseed (brassica napus l.) was studied in a 8×8 diallel cross through griffing and jinks-hayman analyses. both general combining ability (gca) and specific combining ability (sca) were highly significant for seed yield, seed weight and branches per plant, while only gca for seeds per pod and oil content and only sca for pods per plant an...

in order to estimate heritability and gene action for grain yield and its related traits in lentil, six basic generations were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications in a field experiment. besides seed yield per plant, plant height, pod length, and 100-seed weight, the number of pods per plant, primary branches, clusters per plant, nodes per main stem, secondary...

combining ability, gene action, heritability and other genetic parameters in bread wheat under drought stress condition were evaluated using half diallel design. nine wheat cultivars and 36 derived f1 assessed in a randomized complete block design with three replications in shahid bahonar university of kerman research field in 2013. evaluated genotypes showed high diversity for all traits. gene...

combining ability and heterosis were studied in a 6×6 partial diallel cross during 2007-2009 to see the nature of gene action in cucumber (cucumis sativus l.). analysis of variance revealed high significant differences among all the f1 hybrid means and among their respective six parental values for all the traits examined. the mean squares attributed to general combining ability (gca) and speci...

Abstract In order to study the inheritance of grain yield and its components in bread wheat, two cultivars, Karchyya(drought and salinity tolerant) and Gaspard (sensitive to drought and salinity stress) were crossed.Parents together with F1, F2, F3, BC1and BC2 generations were evaluated using a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2008-2009 growing season.Grain weight per...

A complete diallel cross of nine cotton genotypes (Gossypium hirsutum L. & Gossypium barbadense L.) viz Delinter, Sindose-80, Omoumi, Bulgare-539, Termez-14, Red leaf (Native species), B-557, Brown fiber and Siokra-324 having diverse genetic origins was conducted over two years to determine the potential for the improvement of yield, its components, oil and fiber qual...
