Since the germination of the combination PR x PCl was poor, the other five hybrids along with four parents were evaluated in a 9 x 3 RED during 1984-85 and 1985-86. Observations on twenty quantitative and five five qualitative attributes were recorded. The statistical analysis included analysis of variance , pooled analysis and the estimation of genetic parameters, correlations among sixteen quantitative traits and three types of heterosis namely relative heterosis, heterobeltiosis and standard heterosisennullThesis
