Ten parental lines of tomato (Lycopersicon esculantum Mill.) were crossed in 10 x diallel mating plan barring reciprocals. The 45 F1 hybrids along with their parents and one standard check (Pusa Ruby) evaluated a randomized block design three replications. This study relevant that heterosis over the better parent, mid-parent, inbreeding depression was observed for all traits under study. Highly...

in this study six genotypes of upland cotton (g. hirsutum l.) were crossed in a half diallel (6×6) mating fashion. the parents and f1s were planted in a complete randomized block design with three replications at the hashemabad cotton research station (gorgan) in 2005. cotton yield and some agronomic traits were evaluated. analysis of variance showed that differences due to genotypes were signi...

The term diallel is a Greek word and implies all possible crosses among a collection of male and female animals. Hayman (1954a, 1954b) defined diallel cross as the set of all possible crosses between several genotypes, which may be individuals, clones, homozygous lines, etc. Diallel cross is most balanced and systematic experiment to examine continuous variation. The genetic information related...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of nursery establishment under plastic cover on yield of some rice cultivars at lordegan region in 2007. experimental design was a split plot with a randomized complete block with three replications. four rice cultivars (hashemi, hasani, saleh and native) were seeded at three seedling date (14 april, 5 may and 15 may). two first planting date...

to study the inheritance of drought tolerance in traits in bread wheat, 7 cultivars of bread wheat with their f1 progeny produced through a half diallel mating design, were planted in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications in normal and drought condition in seed and plant improvement institute karaj, in year 2004. analysis of variance showed significant difference for all the tr...

to evaluate the effect of growth promoting bacteria on morphophysiologic traits and nutrient uptakes of two rice cultivars, an experiment was carried out in 2009-2010 cropping season in rice researches institute of rasht. the experiment design consisted of four randomized complete blocks in a factorial arrangement having 16 treatments in 4 replications. in this research, two factors were evalua...

considering the increasing rice consumption in the world and also the excessive application of pesticides to increase production, an experiment was conducted to determine the pesticide residues and their effects on nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus content of hashemi, khazar and gohar (sa13) rice cultivars, in a factorial design at randomized complete block design with three replications. in t...

Few studies have evaluated vegetable soybean for sugar content at the green pod stage. Information on combining ability and type of gene action that governs inheritance of seed traits can help breeders to select suitable parents and devise an appropriate breeding strategy. Ten vegetable soybean accessions were crossed in a complete diallel mating design. Parent lines and F2 and F3 progenies wer...
