GENE ACTION AND COMBINING ABILITY STUDIES IN CHICKPEA<br />
and also gave highly significant negative sca effects<br />
for days to 50 per cent flowering and days to maturity.<br />
A few crosses viz., JG-11 x ICCV 95333, JG-11 x<br />
KAK-2, ICCV 05106 x ICCV 95333 and ICCV 05106<br />
x KAK-2 also recorded highly significant sca effects<br />
as well as low mean values for days to 50 per cent<br />
flowering, indicating early maturity and these crosses<br />
involved only one good combiner suggesting additive<br />
x dominance gene effects in these crosses. In these<br />
crosses, additive component present in good<br />
combiners and the complimentary epistatic effects<br />
in F 1<br />
hybrid might work in the same direction to<br />
maximize the desirable effects <strong>of</strong> this trait in<br />
segregants. Promising crosses viz., NBeG-3 x ICCV<br />
95333, JG-11 x ICCV 05106, JG-11 x KAK-2 and<br />
ICCV 05106 x Vihar exhibited significant sca effects<br />
