Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench) is one of the chief and
abundant vegetable grown extensively throughout the world in summer
and rainy seasons. It shows it's presence in all corners of the
globe because of easy cultivation, dependable yield and
adaptability to varying moisture conditions. The investigation was
carried out with three objectives at experimental field, department
of Crop Improvement and Biotechnology, K.R.C. College of
Horticulture, Arabhavi, during 2011-2013. Six single and fifteen
double cross F2 progenies were evaluated for genetic variability.
Overall double cross F2 population showed high GV, PV, GCV, PCV, h2
and GA because of the inclusion of diverse superior parents in its
development. The superiority seen in doubles cross populations over
single crosses clearly indicated the advantage of double cross with
higher heritability Comprehensive assessment of crosses by
considering heterosis values revealed that, out of 15 crosses,
three were average heterotic and three were low heterotic
Pollination between 9 am to 12 noon on same day of emasculation
resulted in higher seed yield and seed quality parameters.
