Genetic variability studies in okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L) Moench.)


Author(s): Kalyani D Deshmukh, VS Khandare, AK Shridhar and SD Jadhav

Abstract:
The extent to which a crop can be improved is contingent upon the level of genetic variability found in the available germplasm. Thus, in order to investigate the genetic advancement, heritability, and variability of okra, four crosses were assessed during the kharif 2021-2022.The traits were studied plant height, days to 50% flowering, fruit length, number of fruits per plant, number of seeds per pod. For every character under study, the genotypes varied significantly, according to the analysis of variance. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance expressed as percent of mean were observed for number of seeds per pod and high heritability coupled with moderate genetic advance expressed as percent of mean were recorded for fruit length, number of fruits per plant. High heritability coupled with low genetic advance expressed as percent of mean were recorded for plant height, days to 50% flowering suggesting that selection could be effectively enhanced.
