The document discusses the development of a web-based software called webPDC for the generation and analysis of partial diallel crosses. webPDC will provide online generation of partial diallel cross plans based on association schemes of partially balanced incomplete block designs. It will also allow analysis of partial diallel crosses through web services that can be utilized by other applications. The goal is to make breeding experiment design and analysis more accessible through a web-based platform.

3. Advancements in the internet technology front have
expanded the potential for Statistical Software.
An online software allows researchers quick and
convenient work environment.

4. Further, web based applications needs to exchange
the information with each other.
So, it is required to develop web services to allow
different statistical web applications to talk to each
other, share services among themselves.

5. Keeping in pace with the advancement in the
statistical software technologies, there is need to
develop web based software in agriculture research
also.
The breeding experiments for plants and animals
involve two types of designs, namely
(1) Mating designs
(2) Environmental designs.
Diallel and partial diallel cross plans are two of the
commonly used mating designs.

6. In a complete diallel cross (CDC) plan, as the number
of lines increases, the number of crosses increases
rapidly resulting in difficulty to handle all of them
effectively.
Hence, it is always desirable to go for a sample of all
possible crosses, which is known as partial diallel
crosses (PDC).
There are many different ways of approaching the
problem of sampling a diallel cross.

7. In one, the association schemes of a partially
balanced incomplete block (PBIB) design are used in
constructing the PDC plans.
The second approach involves developing a PDC
based on circulant structure.
Third approach for sampling the diallel cross, the
average variance over all the comparisons is
minimized.

8. Packages available for generation and analysis of
partial diallel crosses are either stand-alone
applications or are based on circulant plans.
The packages like SPSS, SAS, etc. can be used for
carrying out analysis but do not provide layout plans
of PDC.
A web based software is required for generation and
analysis PDC plans based on the association
schemes of PBIB designs
