Four experiments were carried out using the seven populations (P1, P2, F1' BC1, BC2, F2 and F3) method to study the genetic make up of four crosses namely: (1) Prico x Beni Swief 3, (2) Beni Swief 3 x Portoroco, (3) Quadrato x Beni Swief 1 and (4) Quadrato x Beni Swief 5. Results indicated significant positive heterosis effects were found for all characters, except for l00-kernel weight (g) in the first and second crosses. Significant positive heterosis were also evident for no. of kernels/spike and kernel weight in the third cross.
