[ 1 ] - Generation mean analysis for forage yield and quality in Kenaf

The objective of this study was to estimate heritability, heterosis, and genetic parameters involved in the control of forage yield and quality in kenaf populations, using analysis of generation means. Two crosses were used; Cuba 2032×Accession 75-71 and IX51×Everglade 41. Experimental material comprised of P1 and P2, their F1 and F2 and BC1P1 and BC1P2 generations. The effects of generations w...

[ 2 ] - Genetic Control of Fiber Yield and Quality in Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.)

The study was conducted to investigate the ge-netic basis of kenaf fiber yield and quality In two sets of generations derived from 1X51 x Gha-na07 and Gregg x Ghana07 crosses. Analysis of generation means using weighted least squares procedure was performed on stalk dry weight, bast percentage, days to flowering, plant height, and basal stalk diameter . Analysis of generation means revealed tha...
