Estimation of heterosis for the quality characters in diallel crosses of cotton

A 7x7 intraspecific diallel of cotton G. hirsutum L. was evaluated for estimation of heterosis effects for some quality characters. The maximum increase for lint percentage and staple length over the mid parent was 3.92% and 9.50%, respectively. For fineness the increase over mid parent was -0.25% w...
