Comparative performance of elite inbred lines with alien cytosterile sources and their corresponding hybrids in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
Abstract:The effect of cytoplasm on the mean performance of inbreds and their corresponding hybrids for seed yield and its contributing traits was investigated in the present study. There was no significant difference found between the inbreds based on cytosterile sources E002 (H. annus), ARG 3 (H. argophyllus) and PET 1 (H. petiolaris) for oil content, oil yield and seed yield indicating that under DS 2 nuclear genetic background all the three alloplasmic lines were on par for these traits. Similarly, for the performa… Show more
