Sorghum is a multipurpose crop being used as food, feed, fodder and fuel. The objective of
the study was to investigate breeding values of new F1 forage sorghum hybrids using line x …

Combining ability is widely adopted and handy tool for comparing performances of parental
lines in hybrid combinations in plant breeding experiments. It helps in understanding the …

SUMMARY A study was made in Sorghum bicolor with line× tester (6 females× 4 males) to
estimate the fodder yield and its component traits of different hybrids and parents under …

The study envisaged assessing the general combining ability of the parents and specific
combining ability of the hybrids, using line x tester mating design. Twenty four hybrids …

Hybrids were developed in a Line x Tester mating fashion on six females (lines) using four
males (testers) to estimate the variability in quality traits in different environments. For this …

Heterosis and combining ability analysis of 10× 10 diallel (excluding reciprocal) set of
crosses in forage sorghum were done for yield and its contributing characters during the …

ABSTRACT A study was made in Sorghum bicolor with line× tester (6 females× 4 males) to
estimate the fodder yield and its component traits of different hybrids and parents under …

Combining ability for various quantitative traits viz., days to 50% flowering, plant height,
number of tillers per plant, number of leaves per plant, leaf area, leaf: stem ratio, stem …

The present investigation was carried out to study economic heterosis in forage sorghum.
Hybrids and parents were evaluated at two locations with two dates of sowing during the …
