Abstract
Combining ability and component analyses were performed on data on days to heading and to maturity from a 15 X 15 diallel cross, excluding reciprocals, in Pennisetum americanum grown in three environments. Although additive and nonadditive genetic variance was important for both traits, nonadditive variance predominated. It is concluded that array means can be used for selection purposes. H38, J934 and J104 were the most useful parents for conferring earliness
