N2  - Twenty seven pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] hybrids were
developed by hand pollination using three CMS lines (A lines) and nine
testers (R lines). These hybrids along with their parents and two standard
checks (VL Arhar1 and ICPL 161) were evaluated in a randomized block
design with three replications during kharif 2016-17 for the heterosis
studies. Results indicated that the crosses ICPA 2039 x ICPL161 and ICPA
2039 x ICPL 90048 had manifested significant heterobeltiosis and standard
heterosis over two checks viz., VL Arhar1 and ICPL 161 for grain yield per
plant and yield contributing characters. The stability of these promising
crosses can be studied across the different environments and feasibility for
their commercial utilisation could be tested in further generations.
