Researchers conducted a study on peas to understand how different pea plants contribute to yield. They used a special breeding technique and found that certain pea plants have strong genetic effects on yield traits. Some pea plants were better at passing on good traits to their offspring, while others showed strong interactions when crossed with specific plants. The pea plants KPMR-327, KPMR-288, and NDP-93 were identified as good overall contributors, and the cross between HUP-15 and KPMR-327, as well as KPMR-327 and LFP179, showed the best results for yield traits.
