Heterosis for seed yield and its components in jatropha (Jatropha curcas L.)
Heterosis was determined in a population obtained from a 6 × 6 half diallel cross of jatropha genotypes for seed yield per plant and its components traits at the experimental station of Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia during February 2010 to April, 2011. Results showed that variations for days to flo...
