Abstract:

The present study consisted of six female parents and three male parents. The crosses among the females and males were effected in line × tester (6 x 3). The resulting 18 F1s were evaluated along with the nine parents and one check (PKV Green gold) in Randomized Block Design with three replications. The observations on five randomly selected plants in each replication was recorded for twelve characters viz., days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity, plant height (cm) and grain yield per plant (g). Among the parents, females BPMR-145 and AKM-8802 and AKM-10-07 from males were found best general combiner for grain yield per plant out of eighteen cross combination vaibhav x AKM-10-07 exhibited superior performance for plant height and grain yield, BM-2003 x AKM-10-13 for seed weight and grain yield, BM-2003 x AKM-0603 for grain yield and flower to pod ratio BPMR-145 x AKM-10-07 earliness and grain yield per plant. There for these hybrids are recommended for heterosis breeding to boost low yield levels of green gram. The hybrids with non significant SCA effects (absence of dominance) and parent with significant GCA effect (presence of additive gene action) are useful in identification of identification of superior segregants. Therefore the hybrids BM-2002 x AKM-10-13, BM-2002 x AKM-0603, PM-402 x AKM-10-07, PM-402 x AKM-0603, BPMR-145 x AKM-0603, AKM-8802 x AKM-10-07 and AKM-8802 x AKM-10-13 had exhibited non significant sca effect (Absence of dominance) and parents with significant and positive GCA effects (additive gene action) for different yield and yield contributing characters are recommended for recombination breeding with pedigree method of selection.
