Estimates of combining ability and standard heterosis for grain yield and various agromorphological traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.) [PDF]
A study was conducted for estimating combining ability and standard heterosis for grain yield and various agromorphological traits involving 10 parents and their 45 F1s (half diallel) during 2012-13 and 2013-14.

Phenomic Prediction Can Be Improved by Optimization of NIRS Preprocessing
ABSTRACT In recent years, phenomic prediction has emerged as a new method in plant breeding that has been shown to have great potential. However, there are still many open questions regarding its practical application. For example, in the field of spectroscopy, it is standard practice to optimize the preprocessing of spectra, which so far has only been

Combining ability of spring barley varieties in the direct diallel cross system
It is necessary to know the combining ability of starting material for effective breeding to create varieties. The research aim was to determine the peculiarities of the general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) and the ratio ...

Genetic control of husked nut weight in coconut (Cocos nucifera) [PDF]
The genetic control of husked nut weight in coconut (Cocos nucifera) was investigated using a full-diallel cross including eight parents. The parents were selected sample of palms which gave an annual mean yield of 23 kg of copra per palm with 713 gm of

ABSTRACT Genetic diversity studies and molecular characterization offer crucial insights into preserving germplasm and maximizing its utility effectively. Therefore, the present study aimed to verify the genetic diversity, population structure and linkage disequilibrium in a set of maize (Zea mays L.) germplasm adapted to South Brazil composed of 351 ...

By definition, the genetic effects obtained from a circulant diallel table are random. However, because of the methods of analysis, those effects have been considered as fixed. Two different statistical approaches were applied.

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate whether managing populations and progenies of black common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in exclusive symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) systems, which refer to environments where the primary nitrogen source in the soil is the SNF, is efficient for selecting lines with high symbiotic performance, using grain yield as

Efficiency of circulant diallels as compared to complete diallels for the estimation of combining ability. [PDF]
The efficiency of circulant and complete diallels was compared regarding the estimation of the general (GCA) and specific (SCA) combining ability. Maize population ear yield data from a 28 x 28 diallel were used.

Abstract Ascochyta blight (AB) is one of the most devastating fungal diseases of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Conventional breeding has focused on exploiting and introgressing major genes (qualitative effect) to improve AB resistance in released varieties.
