Abstract
A study in the field was conducted in the Saqlawiya area, west of Baghdad, in latitude- 33.3962011, longitude- 43.7046653, in the spring and fall seasons 2021. In this study, there were 6 inbred of maize (Zea mays L.) were employed; these inbred lines were included in half diallel crosses using model 1 (fixed) and the fourth approach, in the 2021 spring for producing fifteen F1 single crosses. In fall, R.C.B.D. was used to plant cross grains, and three duplicates were used, The statistical analysis's results displayed the mean squares of the genotypes varied significantly for all the traits under study except for the 250 grain weight trait, Variations, heritability for each trait, and coefficients of variation for genotype and phenotype, The correlations between genotype and phenotype between characteristic pairs were calculated to separate the genetic correlation coefficient among effects that are direct and indirect, Studying the path coefficients was utilized. For the most, the traits under investigation, the findings indicated that the genotype variance values were greater than the environmental variance values, grain yield had a highly substantial positive genotype, phenotype link with rows number per ear and grains number per row, as was the greatest heritability of average yield of grains (96%). The grains number per row had the most direct impact on yield of grains, according to Studying the path coefficients, However, the highest rows number per ear was total sum the impact of both direct and indirect factors on maize grain production.
