Heterosis and combining ability for resistance to powdery mildew in adult melon plants
2011-06-01
Abstract excerpt
With 4 tables ABSTRACT: To estimate the heterosis, general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) for resistance to powdery mildew, 30 F₁ hybrids developed in a 6 × 5 line × tester mating design were evaluated both under the greenhouse and field conditions. Predominance of non-additive variance over additive variance in the inheritance of resistance to powdery mildew was detected. Inbred line...
