Abstract:
| Combining ability was studied in a 6 x 6 diallel set of Greengram (Vigna radiata(L.)Wilczek) for seed yield and its components. The study revealed that the variances due to gca and sca were significant for all the characters, indicating the characters were governed by both additive and non-additive gene action. The sca variance was higher than gca variance for most of the characters, indicating preponderance of non-additive gene action in the inheritance of these traits. The genotypes AUGG-1, CDML-1 and CDML-2 were found to be the good general combiners while four hybrids viz. CDML-2/CDML-1, CDML-2/AUGG-1, CDML-1/ CDML-2 and AUGG-1/ CDML-2 were identified as best specific combiners for seed yield and other productive traits |
