GENETIC ANALYSIS IN F3 GENERATION OF EGGPLANT (Solanum melongena L.)

Abstract

Variability and heritability estimates were worked for different characters in three intervarietal crosses of eggplant in Fs generation. Cross combination EP 47 x EP 117 registered high mean, variability and heritability for fruit yield and yield components and offer scope for further improvement. Fruit yield per plant, number of fruits per plant, fruit weight, fruit girth and fruit length recorded high genotypic coefficient of variation. High heritability coupled with high genetic gain was noticed for fruit yield per plant, number of fruits per plant, fruit weight and fruit girth
