A field experiment was conducted in three low moisture areas in Ethiopia to study general and specific combining ability (GCA and SCA) for developmental, panicle and grain traits. Twenty-four parents (6 male sterile lines and 18 fertility restorers or testers) were used along with their 108 crosses. Combining ability analysis through a line × tester set for 14 agronomic traits in three environments and on a pooled basis revealed the importance of both additive and non-additive genetic effects. However, the predominance of additive components was observed in the inheritance of most traits studied. Environments also influenced the GCA and SCA effects. The female genotypes ICSA-10, ICSA-15 and ICSA-30, the testers ICSR-14 and KLCTENT # 17DTN and the crosses ICSA-30 × KCTENT # 17DTN, ICSA-30 × ICSR-16, ICSA-15 × KCTENT #17DTN and ICSA-10 × ICSR-14 exhibited the highest and significant SCA effects for yield and some of its components, indicating their importance in hybrid development for lowland areas of Ethiopia.

Late leaf spot (LLS) Phaeoisariopsis personata (Berk. and Curtis) Deighton is one of the most important foliar diseases of groundnut worldwide including Nigeria. The genotypes were used to estimate the general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) for yield components and late leaf spot (LLS) resistance. Four susceptible genotypes (SAMNUT 23, SAMNUT 24, SAMNUT 25 and SAMNUT 26) were used as females and five resistant genotypes (ICGV 12991, ICGV 7878, FDR-F7 82, FDR-F7 67 and FDR-F7 61) were used as males using line x tester mating design with three replications. The parents and progenies were evaluated for late leaf spot resistance. Highly significant negative general combing ability (GCA) effects were recorded for disease incidence in SAMNUT 25 (-0.05), indicating the genotype is a good general combiner for late leaf spot (LLS) and SAMNUT 26 (-5.90) is a good general combiner for LLS disease severity. ICGV 12991 (-12.00), FDR-F7 67 (-.68) and FDR-F7 61 (-2.23) genotypes are good general combiner for late leaf spot (LLS) disease resistance (disease incidence and severity), among the crosses, significant and negative SCA effects were obtained for most of the crosses i.e SAMNUT 24 x FDR-F7 67 and SAMNUT 24 x FDR-F7 61 for late leaf spot (LLS) resistance indicating that they are good specific combiners for late leaf spot (LLS) resistance. The ratio of the general combining ability (GCA) and specific combing ability (SCA) variances indicated the preponderance of specific combining ability (SCA) variance over general combining ability (GCA) variance for disease incidence and severity, indicating the role of non-additive gene effect and it may be due to difference in genotypes used as parents.

Heterosis and combining ability are two important considerations in the utilization of heterosis, which can be used to generate excellent hybrid resource candidates and is very important in conventional hybrid breeding. In this study, the combining ability, heritability, and heterosis of eight major agronomic traits were analyzed in 10 tomato parents and 45 crosses between them. As well as TY-301, a recognized and official excellent variety that is currently selling well on the market was used as a control to conduct a control heterosis analysis, with the goal of selecting ideal parents with high combining ability and new hybrids with commodity value, high yield, early maturity, and high quality. The results showed that both additive and nonadditive genetic effects are involved in the expression of the traits and that the additive genetic effect is dominant in trait inheritance. Although general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) were not correlated, and the strength of heterosis depends on SCA, the sum of the parental GCA values (GCAsum) did predict heterosis for some traits with higher predictive accuracy than did SCA. Compared with heterosis, GCAsum can better predict hybrid performance. Finally, the parent 17,969 was the breeding material with the best comprehensive trait performance, especially in yield. We screened a high-yielding candidate combination 17,927 × 17,969 and a precocious and good taste candidate combination 17,666 × 17,927. This information may play an important role in the selection of superior parents and hybrid combinations based on combining ability and heterosis analysis.
