|
The experiment was conducted to obtain estimates of heterosis, selective index, genetic advance and selective efficiency in cross among silkworm varieties. Seven parents, 21 F$_1$ hybrids, and 21 F$_2$ populaltions from diallel crosses among them were evaluated. The results obtained are summarized as follows: In male and female of F$_1$ generation, the negative heterosis was shown in two characters of fifth instar period and boiling on ratio, and the positive heterosis with the value of 20.90-37.60% in the other characters. In those of F$_2$, the nagative heterosis was shown in two characters of cocoon layer ratio and boiling off ratio, and the positive heterosis in the other characters. The selection weight of cocoon weight for bave weight was the highest of those of all the characters, and that of the combination of the fifth instar period and cocoon weight for it was the highest of those of all the combination. The genetic advance of cocoon weight toward bave weight was the highest of all the characters. The highest genetic advance and selective efficiency were shown in the combination of all the characters.
