Heterosis and Combining ability for yield and quality traits in Quality Protein Maize (Zea mays L.)
A study of diallel analysis (excluding reciprocal cross) involving 10 maize inbreds (P1 to P10) was carried out to identify high heterotic crosses and their relationship in terms of general and specific combining ability (GCA and SCA) for yield and ...
