Abstract:
|
Generation mean analysis was carried out to study nature and magnitude of gene effects for yield
and its yield component in ten crosses of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) The five parents vm (8L), X-79-1
(4L), EC351187 (8L), EC359007 (4L) and EZ351881 (4L), their F1, F2, F3 were studied for nine
quantitative traits. The analysis showed that scales C and D are highly significant for seed yield/plant and
all the eight yield components, indicating the predominance of non-allelic interactions or epistasis of
Additive x Additive (i) and Dominance x Dominance (l) for almost all the nine characters in most of the
crosses.
Key words: Gene effects, generation mean, non-allelic interaction, Sesamum indicum, scaling test, ,
