| Abstract: |
Background: The present inquisition was carried out at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Maruteru with a set of 30 experimental hybrids developed by crossing three male sterile lines with 10 testers in Line x Tester mating design during Kharif, 2022. Methods: The resultant 30 hybrids were studied in randomized block design with two replications along with the parents and hybrid check, HRI-174 during Rabi, 2022-23. Predominant non-additive gene action was found in the analysis of combining ability for lines, testers and line testers for grain production per plant, days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, ear bearing tillers per plant, filled grains per panicle and 1000-grain weight. Result: The results revealed RGL 5613 and MTU 2055 to be effective combiners for grain yield per plant, filled grains per panicle, spikelet fertility percentage and grain weight of one thousand grains. For five hybrids, the sca effects on grain yield per plant were large and favourable. These hybrids had recorded significantly higher grain yield perplant, more than 30 per cent, compared to the check, HRI-174, in addition to significant desirable sca effects for grain yield per plant.
