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.

Onerice breeding framework: An end‐to‐end system to develop better varieties faster
Abstract Breeding in the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) system is an intricate process that integrates the contributions of market research, pre‐breeding, breeding, breeding operations, and seed systems. Therefore, a well‐defined framework is critical for the effective and efficient operation of a breeding program ...

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

Optimizing Maize Yield With Hybrids Tolerant of High Plant Density in West and Central Africa
ABSTRACT The use of high plant density tolerant maize hybrids was one of the most successful interventions that boosted maize yield in the developed world. However, very little research has been conducted in the improvement of maize for high plant density tolerance in West and Central Africa (WCA).

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.
