breeding programs strategies depends on genetical mechanism of selection traits. in the present research, generation mean analysis with joint scaling test was performed to determine the gene action. f1, f2 and f3 generations, derived from roushan and kavir cross along with their parents were sown in a partial lattice design with two replications under stress condition at the research field of s...

combining ability effects were estimated for different agronomic characters in line × tester crossing program comprising 21 hybrids produced by crossing 7 lines and 3 testers. parents and hybrids differed significantly for general combining ability (gca) and specific combining ability (sca) effects, respectively. the variance due to gca and sca showed that gene action was predominantly additive...

in order to estimate heritability and gene action for grain yield and its related traits in lentil, six basic generations were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications in a field experiment. besides seed yield per plant, plant height, pod length, and 100-seed weight, the number of pods per plant, primary branches, clusters per plant, nodes per main stem, secondary...

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...

to assess heritability, gene action and combining ability of rice varieties for characteristics related to grain appearance and cooking quality, the progenies derived from direct and reverse crosses of the 6×6 complete diallel together with their parents included hashemi, hassani, shahpasand, kadous, vandana and ir36 were grown in a randomized complete block design with three replications in th...

Twenty one F2 progenies derived from a 7×7 diallel crosses along with parents were evaluated for grain yield, flowering and maturity time. Due to significant genotypic effects for all traits, genetic analyses were performed on F2 progenies including analyses of combining ability and genetic components. The Analysis of variance revealed that both additive and non-additive genetic effects were in...
