The genetic control of sink size traits in pearl millet: from generation means and triple test cross analyses

Sink size traits are the major determinates of grain yield in pearl millet. The genetic architecture of three sink size component traits (panicle length, panicle girth and grain size) were studied using generation means and triple test cross analyses. The plant materials for genetic analysis consist...
