The objective of this study was to use the triple testcross design (TTC) to determine if epistasis effect significantly contribute to the performance of the high yield single-cross hybrid, Giza-10. Sixty random plants from the F₂ population of Giza-10 hybrid were crossed to both parents of this hybrid (Sd.7 and &1.63) and to their F₁ hybrid UR - http://nile.enal.sci.eg/EALE/2006/AJARX/5106/1/29.pdf ER -
