In order to know the genetics of grain yield and oil content, a line x tester analysis was undertaken to assess the combining ability of some exotic and indigenous lines of linseed (Linum usitatissimum Linn). Analysis of variance showed significant differences among genotypes for all the characters studied. A multiple crossing programme for intermating population involving all possible crosses among these strains subjects to biparental mating may be expected to offer the maximum promise in breeding for high seed yield and oil content
