Estimation of combining ability and heterosis for yield and its component traits for identification of promising red rice (Oryza sativa L.) hybrids developed from new WA-based CMS lines and red kernel breeding lines
Combining ability analysis and heterosis enables plant breeders in anticipating improvement in productivity through hybridization and selection. In this study, line × tester mating design was used to develop 42 red rice hybrids by utilizing newly developed six WA-based CMS lines and seven testers...
