GENETIC ARCHITECTURE OF PROTEIN CONTENT IN PEA

Abstract

Genetic analysis of generation means was conducted in five crosses of pea for protein content. F1 mean was lower than better parent or near to mid parent value in most of the crosses. Additive gene effects were important and significant for all the crosses. Among epistasis, additive x additive was the most important. The recurrent selection approach was suggested for improvement of this trait.
