In the present study, a set of six female (lines) and seven restorers (testers) pearl millet were crossed in Line × Tester mating fashion. The newly synthesized hybrids evaluated for yield performance during Summer, 2020. high magnitude SCA variance indicates predominance non-additive gene action all characters. Hence, heterosis breeding method is suggested to exploit this kind action. estimate...

Smooth motion of the scapula and humerus with respect to the thorax is essential for shoulder function and abnormalities may indicate clinical entities. Recent studies have made an attempt to devise simple, practical means of quantifying scapular position. The aim of this study was to examine the intra-tester and inter-tester reliability of two methods and to determine if significant difference...

a study was conducted to investigate the genetic variance components and the combinig ability of sunflowers lines at the seed and plant improvement institute, karaj, iran in 2006. a total of 41 genotypes including 2 cms, 13 restorer and their 26 corresponding hybrids were evaluated in a line × tester approach. the analysis of variance indicated that significant differences existed among genotyp...

Estimation of Genetic Variance Components Sunflower Fatty Acids Under Normal irrigation and Drought Stress Conditions Using Line × Tester Method

Twenty hybrids were produced using five CMS lines viz., BRRI3A, BRRI9A, IR73328A, BRRI10A and IR78355A and four restorers viz., BRRI12R, BRRI13R, BRRI14R and BRRI15R following line x tester mating design to find out the best combination (s) in respect of their combining ability effects among the parents and hybrids at BRRI, Gazipur, Bangladesh from July 2008 to May 2009. Data were recorded from...

determining general and specific combining ability of lines is necessary to use them as parents of hybrid varieties. in addition, estimates of the heritability of characters helps in selecting suitable breeding methods and predicting genetic gains of the traits. to determine general and specific combining abilities and gene effects of agronomic characters, five cms lines and four restorer lines...
