Genetic architecture for yield and its components in greengram (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek.)
Author(s): V Swarna Latha, KB Eswari and S Sudheer Kumar
Abstract: The genetic architecture of seed yield and related traits was investigated through generation mean analysis for four crosses in six generations in greengram. Involvement of both additive and non-additive gene actions with preponderance of non-additive gene actions for seed yield, its major yield components suggested that breeding can profitably be utilized for improving seed yield in greengram by exploiting dominance / non-additive gene action. However, to exploit both additive and non-additive types of gene actions observed for seed yield, its components, cyclic method of breeding involving conventional breeding approaches for selection of superior recombinants and their inter se crossing can alternatively be utilized for the development of high yielding inbred in greengram.
