Abstract
Various forms of the diallel crosses play an important role in evaluating the breeding potential
of genetic material in plant and animal breeding. In this paper we give the simple method of
construction of partial diallel cross design through partially balanced incomplete block design as
auxiliary design with the method of analysis and also see the importance of partial diallel cross
design through partially balanced incomplete block design when large number of inbred line
exist in plant and animal breeding experiment. We compare the efficiencies of our proposed
designs with other existing designs for partial diallel cross in the literature and found that
several our designs have higher A- and D-efficiency in comparison to the existing designs.
