COMBINING ABILITY IN RICE

Abstract

In rice, the variances of specific combining ability were higher than general combining ability for plant height, panicle length and grain yield per plant which indicated non additive gene action. The genotypes ADT 31 and Utrirajappan were found to be good general combiners for grain yield and their cross involving these two parents showed high sca effects.
