Publisher Summary Rice is the premier food crop in the world. It is cultivated in about 146
million ha, which produces about 520 million tons of grains. It provides about two-thirds of …

ABSTRACT Two CMS lines, IR69616A and IR70369A were crossed with 60001 (a fine grain
aromatic advance line) and Basmati 385 (a commercial Basmati variety). Fine grain aromatic …

Abstract The CMS lines IR58025A, IR68886A and IR68897A were crossed with the elite
lines/cultivars Gautam, Dhanlaxmi, Prabhat, Saroj, Pusa 1040, Pusa 1107, PSRM-1-16-48 …

Line× tester analysis using a set of three females (Lines) and eight males (testers) was
carried out to estimates the extent of combining ability for yield and its components in rice …

An experiment of line x tester mating design was conducted to study the nature and
magnitude of gene action ie general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability …

A study was conducted on heterosis, combining ability and genetic parameters of yield and
yield components in rice. Five lines were crossed with two testers in line× tester manner to …

Combining ability for ten quantitative and physical characters in rice was studied through
Line× Tester analysis involving eight lines and four testers. The mean squares of variance …

Line (five)× tester (two) analysis was conducted to determine good parents and the nature of
gene action governing yield and its component traits in rice. The line× testers showed …

In this study, an effort was made to identify good parents and nature of gene action
governing different characters of rice by line (4 restorers)× tester (2 cytoplasmic male sterile …

Aims: The main objective of the study is to combining the higher yield and micronutrient
content along with good grain cooking quality in polished rice. Study Place and Duration of …
