Abstract

A significant variation was observed among the 24 populations included in the ex- periment, for all the five characters. The highest heterosis in hybrids was recorded for days to flower (16.49) in 5147 x Vijai. Plant height (31.27) in BGR x PPL, fruit longth (26.31) in PPG x T3. number of fruits / plants (85.08) in T2 x BGL and yield / plant (62.80) in T2 x BGL over better parents. Heterosis over best parent for vield/plant was also recorded in PPC x T3 which was 8.5% Considering the yield potentiality among the crosses the cross PPC x T3 can be exploited for hybrid vigour. Its yield / ha is 513 which is 40 g/ha more yield over the best parent.
