INHERITANCE OF TESTA TEXTURE IN SESAME (SESAMUM INDICUM L.)

Published on

Four crosses of sesame were studied for the inheritance of testa texture. The FI generation
had rough testa while the Fz generation segregated into 3 : 1 for rough: smooth testa
suggesting that this character is controlled by monogenic inheritance, the rough testa being
dominant over smooth.
