Opis

The present investigation, entitled "Generation mean analysis studies in Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench)" was undertaken using six generations viz., P1, P2, F1, F2, B1 and B2 derived from four crosses namely ( Parbhani Kranti × VROR-159, Parbhani Kranti × Kashi Pragati , Kashi Satadhari × VROR-159 and Kashi Satadhari × BO-2) and it was carried out to estimate the gene effect, heterosis, inbreeding depression, heritability and genetic advance. The material along with check Pusa Sawani and Mahyco Bhindi No -10 were evaluated in a Randomized Block Design with three replicates during kharif, 2017. The characters studied were Plant height (cm), Inter-nodal length (cm), Number of nodes on main stem, Number of branches per plant, Days to first flowering, Days to 50% flowering, First fruiting node, Fruit length (cm), Fruit diameter (cm), Fruit weight (g), Number of ridges per fruit, Number of fruits per plant, Marketable fruit yield per plant (g), Yield per plot (Kg), fruit yield (q/ha), Incidence of Fruit and shoot borer (%) and Incidence of Yellow vein mosaic (%).
