DETECTION OF EPISTATIC, ADDITIVE AND DOMINANCE VARIATION IN LINSEED (LINUM USITATISSIMUM L.)

Published on Feb 09, 2020 12:31 PM

Three testers, Neelum, LHCK 222 and their hybrid Neelum X LHCK 222, were crossed to
ten strains/varieties of linseed to detect the presence of epistatic, additive and dominance
variation. Modified triple test-cross analysis was done for nine metric traits. Epistasis did
not affect any of these traits. An additive-dominance model was fitted to all the traits. Both
additive and dominance gene actions were found significalH. However, additive gene
action was predominant than dominance. Partial dominance was observed for all the traits
studied.  

Keywords: Modified triple test-cross, epistatic, ,additive dominance variance, linseed, Unum usitatissimum L.
