Abstract


The present study was carried out to know the performance of parents and their hybrids for different traits attributing for yield in Manjarigota type of brinjal at the Division of Vegetable Crops, Indian Institute of Horticultural Research (IIHR), Hessaraghatta, Bangalore during the period between July-2010 to May-2011. Among the parents used for investigation T 3 , T 2 and L 3 were high yielding of 1.60, 1.30 and 1.26 kg per plant respectively. The hybrids L4 x T 2 , L 3 x T 2 and L 7 x T1 recorded high yield of 2.73, 2.41 and 1.86 kg per plant and showed highest estimated yield of 57.40, 53.70 and 41.40 tonnes per hectare respectively in Manjarigota type of brinjal. The hybrid L 4 x T 2 was most promising for various traits which contribute to highest per plant yield. Based on their performance parents can be used for further breeding programme and hybrids could be exploited for cultivation in Manjarigota background.
