Genetic improvement of cooking time in common bean: the role of dominance by Rita Carolina de Melo, Jefferson Luís Meirelles Coimbra, Luan Tiago dos Santos Carbonari, Paulo Henrique Cerutti, Altamir Frederico Guidolin

“…This was also corroborated by the scale tests, with a predominance of the dominance over the additive component, primarily in the cross between different commercial groups (carioca x black), where the additive component was zero. Additionally, this resulted in a lower broad-sense heritability coefficient, indicating a greater influence of non-genetic causes. …”
