Abstract: The present investigation was carried out using eighteen elite diverse parents and crossing them in line x tester pattern, using fifteen inbreds as females and three as testers during Kharif 2018. The developed 45 single cross sweet corn hybrids were evaluated at Udaipur during Kharif 2019 in RBD with three replications for various growth, yield attributing and yield and quality parameters to estimate general and specific combining ability effects. Cross L5 x T2 possessed significant and positive sca effects for green cob weight/ plant, green cob yield, green fodder yield and TSS content of green grain. Hybrid L6 x T3 possessed significant and positive sca effects for green cob weight/ plant, green cob yield and green fodder yield. L10 x T1 and L15 x T3 possessed significant and positive sca effects for green cob weight/ plant and green cob yield while hybrid L1 x T3 possessed significant and positive sca effects for green cob weight/ plant, green cob yield and TSS content.
