Abstract

Seven pea genotypes (Ametyst, Agat, Agra, Kwestor, Rubin, Bohatyr, line 1167/96) and their F2 hybrids derived from diallel crosses consisted the experimental material. Analysis of variance showed significance of GCA for all tested traits. Lack of significance of SCA for lodging, plant height, nodes per plant and TSW indicates important role of additive gene action in expression of these traits. Significant variances of GCA and SCA for remaining traits indicate both additive and nonadditive gene action in their inheritance. The cultivars Kwestor and Agra were good combiners for seed yield; Rubin and Agra, opposite to Bohatyr, caused higher lodging in comparison to the average of progeny in the crossing scheme. The cultivars Rubin, Agat and Ametyst adversely influencing seed yield and its components should be discarded from crossing programmes.
