COMBINING ABILITY IN FODDER LABLAB

Abstract

                                Combining ability analysis was done in six genotypes of fodder lab lab for 12 traits viz plant height, primary branches per plant, secondary branches per plant, number of leaves, specific leaf weight, green fodder yield, dry weight of leaf, dry weight of stem, leaf:stem ratio, dry matter yield, crude protein and phosphorus content. Based on gea effects among the parents, MS 9495, CO 1, CO 2 and DL. 3196 were found to be good combiners, Predominance of GCA variance was observed in all the traits indicating preponderance of additive gene action.

Key words : Fodder lab lab, Combining ability
