N2 - The ability of the Hayman and Jinks method of analysis of diallel crosses to detect genic interactions was studied in peanuts. Six traits, measured in the F2 generation of a diallel cross of four cultivars, were analyzed. In F2 analyses of the diallel, least squares estimates of variance components D, H1, H2, F, E, were used as an additional criteria for the adequacy of the diallel model. They were found to be in substantial agreement with the tests based on Wr and Vr values, and probably more reliable. The regression of Wr on Vr was shown to be unsuitable to detect 'duplicate gene' type of interactions; it was detected, however, by the ratio of the mean within-F2 - family variance and the variance among the parents. Using the different criteria, 'duplicate genes' type of interactions was detected for two traits, 'complementary genes' type was detected for one trait and three traits were found to fit the additive-dominance model without any genic interactions.
