Abstract

                                In a line x tester analysis involving 15 lines and 4 testers in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), combining ability was estimated for nine traits. Predominance of SCA variance over GCA variance indicated that these traits might be controlled predominantly by non additive gene action. Biparental mating followed by recurrent selection might hasten the rate of genetic improvement of these traits in sesame.

Key words : Sesame, Combining ability.
