Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Quantitative genetic parameters associated with the inheritance of biomass yield and related traits were evaluated in Gynandropsis gynandra for selecting appropriate breeding methods for cultivar development. A total of 331 F1 hybrids generated from a North Carolina mating design II and their 39 parental lines were evaluated in the field and greenhouse for gene action, combining ability effects and...
