Abstract:
Eight elite inbred lines were crossed to generate 28 experimental hybrids to study the combining ability of various traits. The study indicated the preponderance of non-additive (dominance × dominance and additive × dominance) gene action for the majority of the traits and heterosis breeding is rewarding the improvement of the characters.
