Combining ability and heterosis for grain yield, fodder yield and other agronomic traits in Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] [PDF]

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2014
Thirty six hybrids derived from a diallel mating design of nine parents and one standard check GJ-39 were evaluated for general and specific combining ability effects and standard heterosis for grain yield/plant, dry fodder yield/plant, days to 50 per ...

Combining ability among provitamin A‐enriched maize inbred lines and heterosis of their hybrids for grain yield and agronomic traits

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Studying the combining ability of pro‐vitamin A enriched yellow maize inbred lines (Zea mays L.) provides valuable information on the breeding potential of these lines for developing high‐yielding and biofortified maize hybrids with desirable agronomic traits.

Indirect selection based on multispectral aerial images in the early stages of a wheat breeding program

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract To optimize a breeding program's phenotyping process, vegetation indices (VIs) obtained from multispectral images can serve as potential tools for the indirect selection of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) families. This study evaluates the use of VI and multispectral bands for the indirect selection of superior families in the early stages of a ...

Diallel analysis of the duration of vegetation period in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) with increased lycopene content in the fruit

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2021
Five parental forms of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) and twenty hybrids F1, were studied which were obtained by the complete diallel scheme (5 x 5). For genetic analysis (by Hayman, 1954; Jinks,1954) was used line №477 (sp,u), variety Alya (sp) with ...

Diallel analysis of elephantgrass clones for bioenergy production in a tropical environment

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Climate change caused by fossil fuels has driven the search for bioenergy sources. Elephantgrass [Cenchrus purpureus (Schumach.) Morrone] biomass is a promising alternative for diversifying the energy matrix. One of the main steps of a genetic breeding program is the selection of parents who will form the crossing block, and the use of diallel

Defense heterosis as a novel plant protection strategy: From theory to breeding practice

New Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Defense heterosis, the enhanced disease resistance of hybrids compared to their parents, has evolved from early observations of hybrid vigor to a novel research concept. Advances are now clarifying its diverse genetic and molecular mechanisms across various plant–pathogen interactions.

Additive main effect and multiplicative interaction model for a diallel-cross analysis [PDF]

, 2001
Diallel mating designs have proved informative in determining the inheritance of quantitative traits of interest to plant breeders. Apart from the well established analyses of a complete diallel, the two-way factorial data structure of this design lends ...

COMBINING ABILITY OF EIGHT WHITE MAIZE (Zea mays L.) INBRED LINES FOR GRAIN YIELD AND OTHER TRAITS IN DIALLEL CROSSES [PDF]

Journal of Plant Production, 2008
All possible combinations were made in 2005 season between eight diverse white inbred lines of maize in a half diallel at Gemmeiza Agric. Res. Station to obtain 28 single crosses. The 28 F1,s and one check were planted at three locations i.e.
