Heterosis for yield and yield attributes in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Abstract: The present study was carried out to study the extent of heterosis, heterobeltiosis and standard heterosis for yield and yield parameters in rice. Analysis of variance indicated significant difference among the genotypes for various traits. Estimation of heterosis for various yield contributing traits indicated that out of nine crosses studied, Pusa sugandh-2 X BPT-5204 (27.93) and Pusa sugandh-2 X Kasturi (24.71) were identified as promising. These hybrids may be recommended for commercial cultivation after f… Show more

“…These crosses having the parents with good general combining ability effects for grain yield. Similar findings were also reported by Kumari et al (2014) and Sarvan et al (2016) for grain yield, panicle length, productive tillers per plant, days to maturity, days to flowering, plant height in rice crop in Varanasi (India). All six promising crosses for higher grain yield having both parents with good x good GCA effects could be due to additive gene action which is fixable in nature and may be exploited further using pedigree method of breeding for the development of pure lines in rice crop.…”

“…At national level, the area under rice cultivation is 42.5 million hectares with the production of 152.6 million tones and an average productivity is of 3.5 tones/hectares. At global level, rice is cultivated under 158.4 million hectares area with an annual production of around 697.2 million tones and an average productivity of 2.85 tones/ hectares (Sarvan et al 2016). In designing an efficient breeding programme, the breeder faces a major problem of choosing parents for hybridization.…”

“…However, the highest estimates values of mid parent heterosis were recorded for grain yield /plant in the same crosses with the same ranking, their estimated values were (68.19, 35.6 and 18.93), respectively. These results were similarly with these reported by El-Rewainy et al (2011), Chougule et al (2012, Hussain and Sanghera (2012), Nevame et al (2012), Reddy et al (2012), and El-Naem (2014).…”

“…For days to 50 percent flowering and kernel breadth, negative values of combining ability are generally considered to be desirable; while for rest of the traits, positive estimates of combining ability effects are usually preferable [5]. The estimates of GCA effect for different agromorphological traits revealed that the significant negative GCA effect in CMS lines for days to 50% flowering was exhibited by SKUA-7A (Table 3).…”

“…The hybrid rice technology leads to the increase in yield potential of rice varieties by 15 to 20 percent over the pure line commercial cultivars. In India, the average productivity of rice is about 4 t ha -1 and hybrid rice varieties can produce a marked improvement of up to 1-1.5 t ha -1 [4,5]. Among the various approaches, three-line system has become a practical option for hybrid production in rice.…”
