Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation In a ten-parent diallel of sesame, 21 cross combinations showed significant heterosis for seed yield.
- Observation Mean heterosis was high for number of capsules and branches per plant in sesame.
- Association Heterosis for grain yield and its component characters was highly correlated.
- Observation Crosses with significant heterosis generally also showed significant inbreeding depression in F2.
