Abstract

Genetic similarity of genotypes is the very important for analysis of quantitative traits in all organisms. All organisms are exposed on the influence of different environmental conditions but in the genetic level are the same in all environments. A number of studies have shown that the greater the genetic similarity of parental lines, the smaller the heterosis effect [1]. Genetic or phenotypic similarity can be estimated by genotype testing on the basis of the observations obtained through prediction (a priori) or of the observations and studies (a posteriori).
