Heterosis and Inbreeding Depression in Chickpea

Open publisher page 5 citations

Abstract

Heterosis over better parent ranged from 27.28 per cent for grains per pod (Selection-436 x Chafa) to 111.31 per cent for pods per plant (Phule G-5 x Annegiri). Maximum beneficial heterosis for grain yield was observed in Phule G-5x Annegiri (72. 11%). In general, hybrids showing high heterosis also showed high inbreeding depression.
