Abstract Length and shape of rice are important physical qualities that determine public acceptance a variety the price. Improvement length requires information on genetic parameters these traits. Diallel analysis is one methods usually used to estimate trait. The purpose this study was using full diallel analysis. plant material cross-population six genotypes, namely, Basmati Pakistan, Delta 9...

Abstract The objective of this work was to investigate the genetic control black bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) and select parents segregating populations with high resistance Fusarium wilt, yield, greater 100-seed weight (100SW), using a partial diallel cross. Twenty-five were obtained from two groups – first five resistant second susceptible wilt. evaluated in experiments three years/generations f...

Abstract Increasing soybean yield plays a key role in meeting the high demand for protein Europe and other countries. The aim of this study was to dissect genetic architecture underlying seed yield, plant height, thousand‐seed weight early‐maturing soybean. To end, we performed QTL mapping based on 944 RILs derived from half‐diallel crossing design five parents. We identified eight each four ag...

diallel crosses of eight genotypes of safflower were conducted and f1 and f2 generations were evaluated to estimate genetic parameters for seed-quality related traits including protein contents (%), fiber, ash and oil yeild. griffing’s methods 1 and 2 for f1 and f2 generations was used, respectively. sixty four genotypes including 8 parents and 56 f1 progenies, and half diallel crosses of f2 ge...

Aflatoxins, produced by the fungus Aspergillus flavus, occur naturally in maize. Contamination of maize grain with aflatoxin is a major food and feed safety problem and greatly reduces the value of the grain. Plant resistance is generally considered a highly desirable approach to reduction or elimination of aflatoxin in maize grain. In this investigation, a diallel cross was produced by crossin...

Parental diversity is considered desirable to exploit heterosis in any breeding program. The present investigation was undertaken to search out whether any relationship existed between heterosis of cross combinations with phenetic divergence, combining ability and genetic divergence of parents in sesame. Seven sesame genotypes and their 21 cross combinations developed through half diallel matin...

A set of 29 genotypes including 7 parents, their 21 resultant hybrids and one commercial check variety (Arka Mangala) were sown during summer, 2019 at the College Instructional Farm, Horticulture, Venkataramannagudem to study magnitude heterosis using half diallel analysis for eleven characters. Significant differences observed among parents indicating considerable genetic variation these genot...
