Abstract

Heritability and diallel analysis techniques were used to study the genetic basis of two grain quality parameters: Zeleny sedimentation value and Hagberg falling number. Heritability for sedimentation value was fairly high in 1999 (h2 = 57%) and high in 2000 (h2 = 76%). There was also significant correlation between sedimentation values obtained in 1999 and 2000 (r = 0.44). Heritability estimates for Hagberg falling number were lower (h2 = 49% in 1999 and 44% in 2000) and there was no correlation between values from the two years. Diallel analysis revealed that both characters were determined by partial dominance in 1999 and full dominance in 2000. High values of sedimentation were associated with recessive genes, whereas high Hagberg falling number was governed by dominant genes.
