An experiment was conducted at Zonal Research Station (BAU) Chianki, Palamu during 2017-18 to estimate the heterosis and inbreeding depression of six crosses in linseed for different characters. Significant and desirable heterosis over better parent was observed for days to 50% flowering, technical height, plant height, number of primary branches per plant, number of capsules per plant, number of seed per capsule, seed yield per plant and 1000-seed weight. The different crosses showed significant heterosis over check-I (Parvati) for days to 50% flowering, technical height, plant height, number of capsules per plant, seed yield per plant, 1000-seed weight and oil content. Similarly, heterosis over check-II (T-397) was also observed significant desirable direction for days to 50% flowering, technical height, number of seed per capsules, capsule diameter, seed yield per plant and 1000- seed weight and oil content in all crosses. Significant and desirable inbreeding depression was seen for days to maturity, technical height, plant height, number of primary branches, numbers of capsule per plant, number of seeds per capsule, capsule diameter, seed yield per plant, 1000-seed weight and oil content in different crosses.
