Subject(s): Online resources: In: Mansoura University Journal of Agricultural Sciences 2003.v.28(2)Summary: Diallel crosses for a fixed set of 8 white maize populations characterized by earliness, short plants and high yield potentiality were made at Gemmeiza during 2000 summer season. The 8 parents, i.e. Pop-4956, Coposite-5, Giza-2,Tuxpino Pop-402, Across-8562, GWP and Laposta, along with their 28 F₁'s (not including reciprocals) were evaluated at Sakha, Gemmeiza, Sids and Mallawy Agric. Res. Stats. during 2001 season. Eberhart and Gardner (1966) model was applied to determine different types of heterosis and other genetic components. Results indicated that the performance of variety crosses in terms of grain yield and other agronomic traits was superior over mid- and high parent values in most crosses. Both variety and average heterosis source of variation were highly significant for all traits.
