Twenty hybrids of linseed generated by crossing of 5 lines and 4 testers in line × tester mating design were sown along with their nine parental lines to assess the extent of average heterosis over heterobeltiosis for seed yield and its component traits during Rabi, 2014-2015 and 2015-2016. This experiment was carried out at Research cum Instructional Farm, Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, College of Agriculture, AICRP on Linseed, ., Raipur, Chhattisgarh. | Estimation of heterosis for seed yield and its attributing traits in linseed Linum usitatissimum L.
