Abstract

The reduction of efficiency of missing observations on complete diallel cross designs are examined. we studies robustness of optimal block designs for estimating general combining ability against loss of missing observations in diallel cross. A-efficiencies suggest that these designs are fairly robust. Simple g-inverses may be found for the information matrices of the line effects which allow evaluation of expressions for the variances of the differences between the pairs of line effects with missing observations. we numerically calculate the reduction of efficiency for estimating general combining ability against loss of missing observations in diallel cross.
