Magnitude of heterosis and gene effects for yield and quality traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Heterosis, heterobeltiosis, standard heterosis, GCA and SCA effects for yield and quality traits were estimated in 18 cross combinations generated through Line × Tester mating design. The estimates of heterosis were low for quality traits when compared to yield and yield components. Eighteen hybrids...
