TAILIEUCHUNG - Inheritance of grain yield in a half diallel maize population

Inheritance of grain yield, heterosis and combining ability were investigated in maize populations obtained from half-diallel crossing among 9 inbred parental lines. General and specific combining ability effects were significantly different among parental lines. | Turk J Agric For 28 (2004) 239-244 © TÜB‹TAK Inheritance of Grain Yield in a Half-Diallel Maize Population Ayd›n ÜNAY*, Hüseyin BASAL, Cahit KONAK Adnan Menderes University, Agricultural Faculty, Field Crops Dept., Ayd›n - TURKEY Received: Abstract: Inheritance of grain yield, heterosis and combining ability were investigated in maize populations obtained from half-diallel crossing among 9 inbred parental lines. General and specific combining ability effects were significantly different among parental lines. The grain yield was under the dominance gene effect. The parents W 552 and DNB were considered suitable according to their yield capacities and general combining ability effects. The midparent heterosis values ranged from ( x DNB) to (ALKD 222 x A 632) whereas the useful heterosis values varied between – (A 619 x A 632) and (N 7A x ALKD 90-1), and only 9 crosses had higher grain yields than that of the check variety. Of these crosses, N 7A x ALKD 90-1, N 7A x DNB and N 7A x IDRN Cornell, were considered promising hybrids.
