Estimation of heterosis for earliness, yield and yield attributing traits in chilli (Capsicum annuum L.)

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2018
The present investigation was carried out to estimate the magnitude of heterosis over mid parent, better parent and standard checks (Tejaswini and Indam-5) for earliness, fruit yield and yield attributing traits in chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) and ...

Heterosis and Combining ability for yield and quality traits in Quality Protein Maize (Zea mays L.)

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2016
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 ...

Estimation of Standard Heterosis Over Environments for Fruit Yield and Its Attributes in Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.)

Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology
Heterosis breeding has shown to be a promising technique for enhancing crop yields. It allows for the early identification of superior or potential crosses, which is essential for managing the material efficiently and productively in subsequent generations. An experiment was conducted to evaluate 40 genotypes in three different environments.

Combining Ability and Heterosis for Grain Yield and its Component Traits in Rice(Oryza sativa L.)

Notulae Scientia Biologicae, 2013
The nature and magnitude of heterosis and combining ability was studied in 18 F1 hybrids involving three CMS lines and six testers using line × tester analysis. The analysis of variance for combining ability of all the traits showed that variances due to

Determination of Heterotic Groups and Heterosis Analysis of Yield Performance in indica Rice

Rice Science, 2018
To compare the heterosis levels among various groups of parental lines used extensively in China, identify foundational heterotic groups in parental pools and understand the relationship between genetic distance and heterosis performance, 16 parental ...

Gene action, combining ability and standard heterosis for seed cotton yield and fibre quality components in upland cotton

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding
Twelve parental genotypes and twenty F1 hybrids developed in a Line x Tester fashion were used in the present study to estimate gene action, combining ability and standard heterosis for eleven quantitative and five quality traits in cotton. All the traits studied exhibited greater SCA variance than GCA except days to fifty per cent flowering suggesting

Standard heterosis and phenotypic correlation studies on yield contributing traits and quality parameters in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.)

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding
Hybrids show better performance than varieties in terms of yield and quality. Heterosis breeding provides a way to develop hybrids to uplift yield and quality. In the current study, 21 hybrids generated through line × tester mating design were evaluated along with the standard check, Arka Rakshak, in a randomized block design to investigate the ...
