Abstract

A model combining features of Griffing's diallel cross analysis [see ABA 25, 998] with regression analysis for genotype-environment interactions is introduced. An analysis of variance based on this model provides information on the combining abilities of genetic effects and on the interaction of these effects with environments, from which inferences can readily be made on heterosis and heterosis-environment interactions. An example is given of the use of the grouping method of Lin and Thompson [see ABA 43, 4919] to simplify the interpretation of complicated interactions and to identify underlying biological relationships among genotypes
