Prediction of popcorn hybrid and composite means [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the combining ability of 10 popcorn populations in a circulantdiallel; to test the viability of superior hybrids; and to identify genetic composites for intrapopulation breeding.

The use of general and specific combining abilities in a context of gene expression relevant to plant breeding [PDF]

open access: yes
Many common traits are believed to be a composite reflection of multiple genetic and environmental factors. Recent advances suggest that subtle variations in the regulation of gene expression may contribute to quantitative traits.

Heterosis and combining ability in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)

open access: yesInformation Processing in Agriculture, 2019
The objective of this work was to evaluate four parental lines of cucumber which included: ‘Zeina’ (Zna), ‘Beit Alpha’ (BA), ‘Straight 8’ (Strght 8) and ‘Calypso’ (Capso) and six F1s generated by diallel cross, using randomized complete block design with

Heterosis and heterotic patterns among maize landraces for forage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Corn silage is a high-quality forage crop used in many areas of the world. Although vegetative and reproductivecomponents of the plant must be considered, breeding programs in temperate regions are mainly based on the Reid xLancaster heterotic pattern ...

Combining ability as a function of inbreeding for fruit traits in Cucurbita moschata Duch. ex Poir.

open access: yesRevista Facultad Nacional de Agronomía Medellín, 2019
Three diallel crosses of butternut squash (Cucurbita moschata), each consisting of six parents with S0, S1, and S2 levels of inbreeding, were evaluated to estimate the effect of inbreeding on both general (GCA) and specific combining abilities (SCA) for ...

Diallel analysis of yield components of snap beans exposed to two temperature stress environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ten snap beans (‘Barrier', ‘Brio', ‘Carson', ‘Cornell 502', ‘CT 70', ‘HB 1880', ‘Hystyle', ‘Labrador', ‘Opus' and ‘Venture') were selected for differential temperature tolerance and used as parents in a complete diallel mating design.
