COMBINING ABILITY STUDIES FOR YIELD AND SOME OF ITS ATTRIBUTES IN WHITE JUTE (CORCHORUS CAPSULARIS L.)

Published on

Diallel cross involving eleven genotypes of white jute (Corchorus capsula,;s L.) revealed
predominant role of additive gene action in the inheritance of all the characters studied,
except basal diameter. Parents Tripura Cap., Brazil and Cap. Main Land China were
identified as desirable combiners for fibre yield. Crosses JRC 212 x EC-4143, JRC 321 X Cap.
Main Land China, EC-4143 XJRC 412, and Tripura Cap. X Liza were superior combinations
for fibre yield and its attributes on the basis of their sea effects.
