For determination of good combiners for physiological traits, an 8× 8 diallel analysis in
sunflower was conducted during 2003 in Peshawar, Pakistan. The extent of combining …

A study was carried out to assess the combining ability of ten CMS lines with four testers
using the line x tester method. Biometrical observations were taken for days to 50 …

Combining ability studies in sunflower revealed that additive gene action was predominant
for all the characters except 100 seed weight and oil content. Among the female parents, EC …

SUMMARY A Line× tester analysis of 45 hybrids in sunflower using three CMS lines and 15
testers was carried out to study the combining ability for seed yield and its contributing traits …

Combining ability for days to flower initiation, plant height, head diameter, seed yield per
plant, 1000-seed weight and oil content was assessed in a line× tester set of 60 F1 derived …

A line x tester set of 60F1's involving three cytoplasmic male sterile lines and twenty inbred
lines along with parents was evaluated over two environments to evaluate the combining …
