Abstract

Offspring of 6 maternal dent lines crossed with 8 testers were investigated. The experiments were carried out at two locations with two replications using incomplete block design. Data were recorded for grain yield, dry matter content, lodging before harvest, tillering and smutted plants. Analyses of general and specific combining ability were done. There were significant differences between environments for all traits. Interactions GCA and SCA effects with environments were significant for all traits except grain yield. Lines 1390-1; 1417-3 and hybrids 1390-19 × K324 and 1560-5 × K324 were the most valuable.
