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

Griffing’s Methods Comparison for General and Specific Combining Ability in Cucumber [PDF]
A comparison among two forms of half-diallel analysis was made. The different half-diallel techniques used were: Griffing\\\'s model I, method 2 and 4. These methods of diallel analysis were found to be interrelated. However, as the Griffing\\\'s model I, method 4 model partitioned heterosis into different components as well as gave information about ...

Studies on general and specific combining ability in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) [PDF]
A Line × Tester analysis in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) was carried out with seven lines and four testers to estimate the combining abilityeffects, nature of gene action and heterosis for eight characters viz., days to 50 per cent flowering, plant height,

General and specific combining ability for quantitative characters in castor (Ricinus communis L.)
The experimental material consisted of ten monoecious lines, their 45 F1S developed through diallel mating excluding reciprocals, which was evaluated in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. The analysis of variance for combining ability revealed that mean square values due to both GCA and SCA and were significant, accordingly the ...

Determination of General and Specific Combining Ability of Five Upland Cotton Cultivars
<p>The present investigation was aimed to determine the general combining ability of the parental lines and specific combining ability of the hybrids respectively and also heterotic effect of F<sub>1</sub> hybrids for some agro-economical traits in upland cotton. Five parent genotypes viz.
