Diallel analysis for yield contributing characters in greengram [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek].

摘要

Diallel analysis in green gram was done using 28 F₁s obtained from 8x8 diallel mating design, excluding reciprocals for yield and its components in Gujarat, India, during the 2007 summer and kharif seasons. Highly significant general combining ability and specific combining ability variances were observed. The non-additive gene effects were predominant. GM-4, GM-3 and KM-5-124 were found to be the best general combiners and crosses KM-5-191 x GM-4, KM-5-124 x GM-4 and KM-5-183 x GM-3 were observed to be superior cross combinations for yield contributing characters.
