Abstract in English
This research was carried out to evaluate the combining ability of twentyfive
inbred lines of yellow maize and estimate the phenotypic correlation and
path analysis of twenty-five top crosses were formed during 2009 growing
season at Dir Ala, Dead Sea. Jordan. Their plants were evaluated in Syria
during 2009 growing season in three locations (Al Raka, Aleppo and Dir Al-
Zor).
