| Description |
Green forage yield per plant, dry-matter digestibility, crude protein content, total soluble solids and dry matter content were measured in parents and progenies of an 8 X 8 diallel cross. General-combining-ability (GCA) variance was significant for all characters while specific-combining-ability (SCA) variance was significant only for green forage yield per plant, crude protein content and total soluble solids. The magnitude of the GCA variances was two to twelve times greater than that of the SCA variances, thus indicating the predominance of additive gene action for the three characters
