Abstract: The present study aimed to assess the analysis of variance among F
3 and F
4 populations of okra (
Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench) derived from two crosses: OK-2017-010 × Pusa Sawani and OK-2017-010 × Varsha Uphar. Statistical variance analysis was conducted using the augmented block design for the F
3 populations and randomized complete block design (RCBD) for the F
4 populations. A total of fourteen agronomic traits were evaluated, including earliness (days to first flowering, days to 50% flowering), plant height, number of branches per plant, fruit size (length, diameter), number of fruits per plant, and total yield per plant. The analysis of variance revealed highly significant differences among the treatments in both F
3 and F
4 populations for all traits, indicating substantial genetic variability. The presence of significant variation across yield components, fruit quality traits, and plant architecture highlights the potential of these populations for the selection of superior genotypes. These findings provide a solid foundation for the advancement of promising segregants in okra breeding programs, with the ultimate goal of developing high-yielding, early-maturing, and improved-quality okra cultivars.
