Parental generation in relation to combining ability analysis in spring barley

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1974
A comparison between Griffing's (1956) Method 1, Model I, and Method 3, Model I, using data from a 10 × 10 diallel of spring barley grown in eight different environments, revealed that inclusion of the parental generation (Method 1) caused considerable upward bias in the estimates of both the general and specific combining ability variances, whereas ...

USING GENERAL AND SPECIFIC COMBINING ABILITY TO FURTHER ADVANCE STRAWBERRY (FRAGARIA SP.) BREEDING

Acta Horticulturae, 2014
Strawberry is one of the five fruit crops included in the USDA-funded multi-institutional and trans-disciplinary project, “RosBREED: Enabling Marker-Assisted Breeding in Rosaceae”. A Crop Reference Set (CRS) was developed of 900 genotypes and seedlings from 40 crosses representing the breadth of relevant diversity and encompassing founders used in ...

Specific and general combining ability for yield in potatoes

American Potato Journal, 1962
Forty-five lines were crossed to six testers to evaluate their general combining ability. These lines did not clearly represent a random selection of lines with respect to this character, though they had not undergone any formal selection in this respect.

Relevance of Specific versus General Combining Ability in Winter Wheat

Crop Science, 2012
ABSTRACTKnowledge of quantitative genetic parameters is crucial in allocating resources for different steps of multistage selection programs. The main objective of the present study was to investigate the magnitude of variance of general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) effects and their interaction with environments in ...

ESTIMATION OF GENERAL AND SPECIFIC COMBINING ABILITIES IN POTATO

Canadian Journal of Genetics and Cytology, 1976
Seven quantitative traits of the cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) were studied in a partial diallel cross experiment. Large specific combining ability effects were observed for total and marketable yields, total number of tubers, and number of marketable tubers. Large general combining ability effects were obtained for average weight per tuber,
