Abstract

Combining ability analysis aids in identifying parents with good trait in the desired direction for various targeted traits, and provides information on the relative importance and magnitude of additive and non-additive types of gene action in trait expression. This study was carried out to determine the combining abilities and heritability for grain yield and grain yield components of segregating population of rice. A total of 78 genotypes of rice were used in this experiment, which included 59 F₁ hybrids developed through North Carolina II mating design together with their parents, and adapted check. The experiment was conducted using alpha lattice design, with two replications. Analysis of variance revealed highly significant differences between genotypes, indicating the presence of genotype variation. The GCA exhibited high significance with the days to 50% flowering, leaf area, leaf area index, and all the traits under study, while SCA showed significant effects with the number of days to 50% flowering and 1000 grain weight. Broad-sense heritability showed higher results for days to 50% flowering at 0.97, and narrow-sense heritability showed the highest value of 0.81 for panicle length. The cross UPN 349 × NERICA 2 recorded 57.5 days very early. FARO 52 displayed a positive significant GCA effect when used as male parent under grain yield. Panicle weight (0.39489) and number of grains per panicle (0.64909) showed positive significant correlation with the grain yield. For grain yield and the majority of studied traits, non-additive genetic variance was found to be greater in magnitude than the corresponding additive variance.
