Abstract:

The present study was conducted to assess the general combining ability effects of parents and specific combining ability effects of crosses for yield and yield related traits. 42 F₁s developed by line x tester were evaluated. The ratio of sca/gca variance revealed that there was preponderance of additive gene action in the expression of yield and yield contributing characters. The maximum GCA effects were exhibited by parent DBW-179 for grain yield per plant (3.83) and harvest index (8.33) in late sown environment. The maximum SCA effects (3.20) were depicted by cross KBRL 82-2 x RAJ 4079 in late sown environment for this trait.
