A diallel cross of four cigar cultivars and one pipe tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) cultivar was analyzed for the following parameters: grade index, yield, crop revenue or index, percentage of nicotine, percentage of total alkaloids, and susceptability to pole rot. The experiment was performed over 3 years. Analysis was done for general combining ability and specific combining ability. General combining ability was greater than specific combining ability for all variables although significant specific combining ability effects were also present for all parameters with the exception of nicotine and total alkaloids. Reciprocal effects were completely absent. The line Pennbel 69 showed a positive general combining ability effect for yield, crop index, and infestation by pole rot and a high negative general combining ability effect for grade index and percentage of nicotine and total alkaloids. Petit Havane showed a complete reverse of general combining ability effects for these parameters while the other three cultivars were intermediate. High positive specific combining ability effects for grade index, yield, and crop index and high negative specific combining ability effects for the percentage of pole rot were shown by crosses of Pennbel 69.

A diallel cross of four cigar and one pipe tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) was analyzed for the following characters in samples of cured tobacco: (1) percentage of light filler; (2) percentage of heavy filler; (3) percentage of top filler; (4) percentage of bottom filler; (5) percentage of total filler; (6) percentage of marketable trash and (7) total percentage of marketable tobacco. The experiment was performed over three years with four replications. Analysis was done for general combining ability and specific combining ability. General combining ability was greater than specific combining ability for all parameters, although specific combining ability effects were also present for all parameters with the exception of total marketable tobacco. Reciprocal effects were completely absent. The line Pennbel 69 showed a negative general combining ability effect for all grades of filler, total filler and total marketable tobacco with a positive effect for percentage of marketable trash. High positive specific combining ability effects for percentage total filler and high negative specific combining ability effects for percentage marketable trash were shown by crosses of Pennbel 69 with the other four cultivars.
