The experiment comprised of six F1’s, which were selected based on the combinations of low yield × high yield and low ASI × high ASI. The selected six F1’s were crossed in full diallel mating design to synthesis 18 three way crosses was estimated and validated on the basis of performance of their constituent single crosses. Out of 18 hybrids, TWC 3 recorded lower days to tasseling and silking and hence it can be used further in breeding programme. While, TWC 4 (), TWC 11 (), TWC 9 (), TWC 10 (), TWC 14 () and TWC 5 () recorded least ASI. | Prediction and validation of three cross hybrids in maize (Zea mays L.)
