Abstract

Diallel analysis was applied for plant height, no. of ears/plant, no. of grains/ear, 1000 grain weight and grain yield/plant. Graphical analysis revealed non-allelic interaction and overdominance in the inheritance of no. ears/plant, 1000 grain weight and grain yield/plant. Plant height and no. of grains/ear were determined by partial dominance. Recessive genes were associated with high expression of grain yield/plant and no. of grains/ear, whereas plant height appeared to be inherited as a dominant character.
