MOENCH]}, volume={10}, url={https://thebioscan.com/index.php/pub/article/view/1650}, abstractNote={<p>24 F1 hybrids from eight lines and three testers were evaluated with the objective of identifying the high yielding parents and F1 hybrids through Line x Tester mating design to estimate the heterosisduring Summer-2014.The genotypes differed significantly for most of the characters studied. Theheterosiswas recorded for pod yield and its 14 component characters. As a result, three F1 hybrids, AOL 10 - 22 x VRO-6, JOL 09 - 05 x GAO - 5 and AOL 09 - 02 x VRO-6 recorded high degree of heterosis for yield and its contributing characters. High estimates of heterosis obtain in hybrid combinations revealed considerable genetic divergence among the parental lines.</p>}, number={Supplement 2}, journal={The Bioscan}, author={HIMANI B.
