| Abstract/Description: | Castor, a cross pollinated crop with sexual polymorphism which is highly sensitive to environmental conditions was successfully utilized to develop a two line breeding system. The present paper historically reviewed the development of hybrids and refinements in seed production technology to facilitate genetically high quality seed. Status of sex expression, developing pistillate lines and the historical achievements in heterosis breeding in India, seed production related issues and future outlook for castor hybrids have been broadly presented highlighting the role of hybrids placing India as a current global leader in production and productivity. |
| Description: | The paper reviews the research high lights and success story of seed production of castor hybrids in India. |
