In this present study, most of the yield
and quality traits includes plant height, number
of leaves per plant, number of baby corns per
plant, baby corn length, baby corn yield per plot,
total sugars and reducing sugars is governed by
both additive and non-additive genes but later is
predominant suggesting that bidirectional
recurrent selection could be adopted for the
improvement of these traits, whereas additive
gene action was found prominent for the
expression of the characters i.e. days to
tasseling, baby corn weight and non-reducing
sugars indicating simple selection could be
effective for bringing improvement of this traits
in baby corn.
