Итог: | Five lines and ten testers were crossed in line x tester manner to develop 50 F1 hybrids. ANOVA showed significant differences among the environments and genotypes for all characters. Greater stability was observed in gca values for all the characters. σ2GCA/ σ2SCA ratio revealed preponderance of additive gene action for seed yield per plant, capsules per plant, capsule length and 1000-seed weight. The preponderance of non-additive gene action was recorded for the rest, suggesting the importance of both additive and non-additive gene actions for inheritance of component traits. The parent G.Til-3 was found good general combiner for all the traits except earliness characters where Phule Til 1 manifested good gca for days to 50% flowering and days to maturity. Among the male parents, JLS-116, AKT-101, JLS-9707-2 and JLS-110-12 were good general combiners for seed yield per plant as well as most of the yield components. The crosses G.Til-3 x AKT-64, Phule Til No.1 x JLS-116 and Patan-64 x AKT-101 manifested significant, higher and desirable sca effect for seed yield per plant as well as important yield components.
