Abstract:
Research was carried out at Vegetable Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P.) during winter season of 2020 – 2021. To evaluate the genetic analysis for yield and its component traits of 18 Hybrids, with three replications in Randomized Block Design (RBD). Hybrid H- S-22 X Kashi Vishesh (7.41 kg) followed by Azad T-6 X Kashi Aman (6.72 kg) and Pant T-7 X Kashi Aman (6.70 kg) higher fruit yield per plant, days to first flowering was recorded minimum in the hybrid hybrid H- Azad T-5 X Kashi Aman (31.57 days) and days to 50% flowering was minimum in the hybrid (Check) Kashi Abhiman (36.66 days). The highest magnitude of coefficient of variation at phenotypic as well as genotypic levels was observed among the hybrids. The presences of high heritability in broad sense (h2bs) along with high genetic advance in percent of mean were observed for the characters like days to first flowering fruit weight, days to 50% flowering. whereas high heritability in broad sense (h2bs) were observed for days to first flowering followed by fruit weight and days to 50% flowering and in case of high genetic advance in per cent of mean were observed for fruit weight (g) followed by fruit yield per plant and number of locules per fruit.
