Genetic improvement of Grain Yield by Determination of Selection Index in Single Cross Hybrids of Maize (Zea mays L.)
Selection based on proper selection indices can be one of the most effective methods for indirect selection of yield and yield components, simultaneously. In order to determination of selection index for improvement of maize yield, 60 single cross maize hybrids were planted in two separate experiments (drought stress and normal conditions) based on randomized complete block design (RCBD) with t...
متن کاملCorrelations among Grain Yield and Yield Attributes in Maize Hybrids at Various Nitrogen Levels
Three maize hybrids (Baber, Pioneer 30P45 and Syngenta 6621) were compared for yield and yield components and correlations were worked out among the yield parameters at various nitrogen levels in an experiment conducted at Agricultural University, Peshawar, Pakistan during summer 2009. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete blocks with split plot arrangement having three replication...
متن کاملGrain yield stability of single cross maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids over three different environments
An investigation was conducted to determine the grain yield performance of seventy two single cross maize hybrids, their nine parents and one commercial check across three seasons (Summer, Kharif and Rabi) of the year 2006 at the Department of Millets, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore. The design lay out was a randomized blocks design with three replications. The additive main eff...
متن کاملAbsence of Epistasis for Grain Yield in Elite Maize Hybrids
ABSTRACT Measures of epistasis in maize hybrids have been estimated by (i) triple-test crosses, (ii) making comparisons Certain maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines are more successful than of single, three-way, and double cross hybrids, or (iii) others in forming elite hybrids. This study was conducted to determine measuring variance components (Hallauer and Miwhether epistatic interactions play a...
متن کاملGrain Yield and Heterosis of Maize Hybrids under Nematode Infested and Nematicide Treated Conditions.
Plant-parasitic nematodes are present on maize but resistant genotypes have not been identified in Uganda. This study was aimed at determining the level of nematode resistance among F(1) hybrids, and to estimate grain yield, heterosis and yield losses associated with maize hybrids under nematode infestation. The 30 F(1) hybrids and two local checks were evaluated in a split plot design with nem...
