Abstract

Diallel analysis in kenaf showed predominance of additive gene action for seed yield per plant and number of capsules per plant. Genotypes RIN-051, RIN-049 and RIN-096 exhibited positive significant gca effects for seed yield per plant and hence may be used in future breeding programme of kenaf.
