Inheritance of seed oil content in linseed under different environments

摘要

In both the approaches, additive as well as non additive genetic variances were significant. However, additive genetic variance was of greater magnitude. Parents Chambal and Triveni had possessed maximum oil content along with high GCA effects over the environments. In pooled analysis about 1/3 crosses exhibited significant and positive SCA effects. The cross combination AKL 79 X Chembal depicted the highest SCA effect, however, the cross. LCK 88062 X LW 28-9 had high oil content. For improvement of this trait pedigree selection method and diallci selection mating are suggested.
