Combining ability for the traits of stem branching and plant height in linseed lines

Kalinina O., Lyakh V.

Combining ability for the traits of stem branching and plant height has been studied in ten pure lines of flax under complete and incomplete diallel crosses. High heritability of the traits «plant height», «the number of lateral stems» and «the number of lateral shoots» and essential role of genes with dominant effects of interaction in genetic control of the traits of stem branching and plant height have been shown. On the basis of combining ability indexes the ways for usage of certain genotypes and crossing combinations in flax breeding were defined. As a result of individual selection from hybrid combinations some new complexes of habit traits and agriculturally valuable plant characteristics were obtained.
