Abstract

Combining ability effects of four cytoplasmic male sterile lines in combinâtion with two restorer lines were calculated by using the line x tester analysis technique at the National Agricultural Research Centre, Islamabad. The line CMS-HA-89 was the best general combiner for yield, oil content, and 100-achene weight. The restorer RHA-271 was a better general combiner as compared with RHA-273. The best specific combination for yield was CMS-HA-277 x RHA 271.

Keywords: Line x tester analysis, GCA effects, SCA effects.
