The experimental material comprised of 20, three way crosses in mustard to estimate the extent of yield and yield contributing traits inRabi 2006. The crosses (Seeta x Rohini) x Pusa Bold and (Seeta x ACN-9) x Rohini and (Seeta x ACN-9) x PCR-7 exhibited maximum heterosis for seed yield plant-1 and hence may be forwarded to later generations to identify a superior recombinant line.
