STUDY OF INBREEDING DEPRESSION FROM Fl TO F3 GENERATION IN SOME INTERVARIETAL CROSSES OF INDIAN RAPESEED B. CAMPESTRIS L. PRAIN

Published on Oct 13, 2019 12:44 PM

Among 28 intervarietal crosses studied, the average inbreeding depression for seed yield
from Fl to Fz generation was 14.74%, and from Fz to F3 6.09o/D. The mean inbreeding
depression for the major yield components (except lOOO-seed weight) in the high range. The
cross combinations Candle X Torch, YST-151 x Candle, and PT-30 X Candle could be
considered to be desirable crosses from the composite breeding point of view.
