Combining ability and inheritance of pod and cluster number inPhaseolus mungo L
1Department of Plant Breeding, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, India.
Abstract:
A set of sixPhaseolus mungo lines was studied in a diallel cross over two generations to investigate general and specific combining ability and mode of inheritance for cluster and pod number. General combining ability effects were more important for both characters.Per se performance appeared to be a good index to rank the parental lines for general combining ability. Additive gene effects with partial dominance to overdominance for these traits were noted. High cluster and pod number seem to be governed by recessive genes.

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal...
