Abstract
Combining ability and heterosis effect for some yield components of spring triticale in the crosses performed according to factorial mating design of three maternal and four paternal forms are reported. The F1 and F2 generations were tested in Kraków and Małyszyn, respectively. Five traits were analyzed: culm length, ear length, grain number grain weight per ear, and 1000 grains weight. The analysis of variance for F1 and F2 generations and parental forms showed a significant general combining ability of female forms for ear length and grain number per ear. As regards paternal forms, general combining ability was significant for all the traits under study except ear length in F1. The specific combining ability was significant for culm length and ear length. For grain number per ear, grain weight per ear and 1000-grain weight the specific combining ability was not significant statistically. Heterosis effect was negligible for culm length and ear length, but considerably higher for grain weight per ear and 1000-grain weight.
