The interspecific hybrid progenies derived from two cultivars of Abelmaschus escul- entus and two wild forms of A. manihot were evaluated using a hybrid index formulated with distinguishing qualitative and quantitative characters. There was a rapid recovery of the cultivar build in both the pedigree and backross method of breeding. There was a steep fall in the index values of Fa population of pedigree progenies as well as in the F generation of first backcross showing remarkable recovery of the cultivar build in the recombinants.
