Heterosis breeding is a potent genetic tool for exploitation of non-additive gene action. Knowledge on the extent of heterosis immensely help in identification of potential crosses for either hybrid development or for availing scope for selection of superior segregants. Twenty-eight crosses were evaluated for heterosis developed using diallel mating design from eight parent for fourteen biometric traits. Superior crosses were identified for each fourteen traits studied. For the character, days to 50% flowering, Rama with AT-382 exhibited highest mid-parent heterosis (-22.39 %) and better parent heterosis (-31.58 %) and standard heterosis (-29.73 %) in negative direction. Similarly, AT-382 with VRI-1 showed highest mid parent heterosis (-11.80 %) and better parent heterosis (-20.22 %) in negative direction for days to maturity. For seed yield per plant, AT-382 with Krishna produced highest heterosis over mid-parent (92.46%), highest heterosis over better parent (89.32%) and also highest heterosis over check variety (33.27 %). Krishna with Uma showed highest heterosis (58.21%) over mid-parent, over better parent (51.43%) and over standard check (47.22%) for oil content. Keeping in importance of the trait and percentage of heterosis, we identified three best cross; AT-382 with VRI-1 for early maturity, AT-382 × Krishna topped among all cross for seed yield per plant and Krishna × Uma identified as the best cross for oil percentage.
