Speed approach for genetic analysis of quantitative traits in linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) genotypes under sub temperate conditions of Western Himalayas using shuttle breeding
Abstract:Gene action studies are important component to formalize the breeding programmes. In the present study, genetic components of variation for different traits were determined in one and half year using triple test cross approach along with shuttle breeding in linseed. Epistasis was observed significant for all studied traits. The [i] type epistasis was significant for days to 50%flowering, days to 75% maturity, secondary branches per plant, capsules per plant, 1000-seed weight and aerial biomass per plant.
