description The research was conducted with six parental genotypes: varieties Anno, Gold, Joel, Junior, PF-G1 and Shawnee with aim to improve the dry pea breeding for higher grain yield. Objectives of the research were to investigate: a) the inheritance of grain yield per plant and its components; b) to determination of the combining ability of parents and their cross-combinations; c) the interrelationships among grain yield, its components and morphological traits; d) choosing the primary selection criteria; e) choosing the best cross-combinations in order to achieve the highest selection response of grain yield; f) simple and digenic epistatic gene-effects in the chosen cross-combinations which determ the trait chosen as a primary selection criterion; g) the genetic components of variation in the chosen cross-combinations of the trait chosen as a primary selection criterion; h) the anticipation of genetic gain of grain yield per plant of the chosen cross-combinations. The research was conducted on experimental fields and laboratories of the Agricultural Institute Osijek. Parental lines were chosen in 2006, the first series of crossings in a diallel fashion were performed in 2007, and the second series in 2008, in a diallel fashion plus back-crossing. The obtained generation material (P1, P2, F1, F2, BC1 i BC2) of 15 biparental combinations was seeded in the field trial in 2009. Measurement of the yield, its components and morfological traits was done at the end of vegetation. The inheritance of investigated traits was estimated using Hayman’s approach to diallel analysis, combining abilities were determined using Griffing’s approach to diallel analysis, interrelationships among investigated traits were determined using correlation analysis, the primary selection criterion was chosen according to the inheritance of the investigated traits and their interrelationships, best cross-combinations were chosen upon Griffing’s analysis results and two principles: a) the highest per-se value of F1 cross-combination and b) the highest values of general combining abilities of the two involved parents. In the chosen cross-combinations, estimation of genetic effects determining the chosen trait (yield per plant) was conducted using the generation mean analysis, and estimation of genetic variance components was conducted using variances of the six basic generations. Anticipation of the genetic gain of grain yield per plant was conducted using estimated genetic effects and variances in the chosen cross-combinations. The highest narrow-sense heritability was estimated for thousand grain weight (82%), followed by plant height (78%), count of nodes till the first pod (60%), grain yield per plant (52%), count of pods per plant (40%), and the least one was estimated for count of grains per plant (31%). Cross-combination Anno×Joel had the highest per-se grain yield per plant and highly significant special combining effect. Very strong positive correlation was found between grain yield per plant, count of grains per plant and count of pods per plant. Aiming to increase a grain yield per plant, the grain yield per plant per-se was elected as the primary selection criterion due to its appreciable narrow sence heritability estimation. Anno×Joel cross-combination was chosen as the most promising according to the highest per-se value of grain yield per plant, and Gold×Joel cross-combination according to the highest values of general combining ability effects of both parents. Using generation mean analysis there were estimated small additive genetic effects for grain yield. On the contrary, there were estimated high values of additive genetic variance component at six basic generations. The highest anticipated genetic values of grain yield of the future recombinant inbred lines that could be derived from the chosen cross-combinations should surpass 10.91 g/plant, respectively. These would respond to selection gain of maximum of 167 % in relation to the highest yielding parent Shawnee which had the genetic value of grain yield per plant of 4.08 g.
