Abstract

---

Nature of gene action and inheritance of traits related to seedling vigor and grain yield was determined in F1 generation of a 7 parent diallel cross. Genetic component analysis revealed that rate of germination index and seedling shoot length were influenced by both additive and non-additive gene action, however, the additive component was found to be more pronounced in the inheritance of these two traits.
