ABSTRACT
Present investigation was carried out using the experimental material comprising five generations (P1,P2, F1, F2 and F3) of two crosses derived from Swarna (high yielding mega variety) x Ranbir basmati (high Fe and Zn) and Swarna x BR2655 (high Fe and Zn). Populations of two crosses, revealed that Fe content had significant and positive dominance x dominance effect [l] followed by additive x additive effects [i]. The results of Zn contents were shown to fit the additive-additive × additive model and their effects were also significant. The similar results also found in Cross 2(Swarna x BR2655), in which iron trait showed high and negative dominance x dominance effect [l].
Key words: Inheritance, Additive effect, Malnutrition, Anemia, XRF.
