Genetic analysis on yield and biochemical traits in maize hybrids

This book covers the identification of potential parents and hybrids based on combining ability and heterosis studies. It also highlights the gene action for different yield contributing traits in Maize. It throws light on various analytical methods like combining ability, heterosis and correlation. Plant Breeding is a very important discipline which has wide practical applications in improving the genetic makeup of crop plants.This book will be highly useful for the research scholars in Plant Breeding and Genetics. The research scholars will gain a thorough knowledge and understanding on the genetic studies in Maize. The language is simple and easy to understand.
