Abstract
In many agricultural crops, the number of parents used in cross breeding make it difficult to obtain all possible hybrids in diallels. Therefore, using maize as a model plant and based on traits with high and low heritabilities, the aim of the present study was to quantify the correlation estimates of the general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) between a complete diallel and a circulant diallel, with and without the inclusion of parents. For the high heritability trait, the GCA estimates can be obtained with low s values, whereas for the SCA estimates, s values close to half the number of parents should be used. For the low heritability trait, information from parents must be used to obtain the SCA estimates. For the GCA estimates, considering the stabilization of r above 0.70 for s=7, s values greater than half the number of parents must be used in the circulant models.
期刊介绍：
The CBAB – CROP BREEDING AND APPLIED BIOTECHNOLOGY (ISSN 1984-7033) – is the official quarterly journal of the Brazilian Society of Plant Breeding, abbreviated CROP BREED APPL BIOTECHNOL.
It publishes original scientific articles, which contribute to the scientific and technological development of plant breeding and agriculture. Articles should be to do with basic and applied research on improvement of perennial and annual plants, within the fields of genetics, conservation of germplasm, biotechnology, genomics, cytogenetics, experimental statistics, seeds, food quality, biotic and abiotic stress, and correlated areas. The article must be unpublished. Simultaneous submitting to another periodical is ruled out. Authors are held solely responsible for the opinions and ideas expressed, which do not necessarily reflect the view of the Editorial board. However, the Editorial board reserves the right to suggest or ask for any modifications required. The journal adopts the Ithenticate software for identification of plagiarism.
