Abstract

Genetics ofKamal bunt resistancewas investigated using triple test-cross analysis in bread wheat. Twenty nine diverse genotypes were crossed with HD 29 (resistant) and WL 711 (susceptible), true-breeding testers, and their Fl hybrid. The epistatic variation was found to be an integral part of inheritance of Kamal bunt resistance. Both additive (D) and dominance (H) geneticcomponents were significantwith partial degree ofdominance. Due to the predominance of additive variance, breeding for Kamal bunt resistance may be successful with simple selection procedures.
