GENETIC ANALYSIS FOR YIELD AND ITS COMPONENT TRAITS IN UPLAND COTTON (GOSSYPIUM HIRSUTUM L.)
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
This study was undertaken to estimate the GCA of the parents and SCA of hybrids for development of high yield potential varieties. From 10 parents and 45 hybrids were obtained by crossing in a 10 x 10 half diallele design. Produced F1s were sown in RCBD design. Analysis revealed that significant GCA and SCA effects for all the traits under study. Among the parents: GSHV 99/307 found to be good general combiners for seed cotton yield, Lint yield, Ginning out turn, Lint index, Plant height, number of monopodia per plant, Sympodial length at 50% plant height and number of reproductive points per plant. The high yielding hybrids were deducted with significant SCA effects for seed cotton yield and its component characteristics
