dc.description.abstractForty okra accessions were evaluated in Randomized Block Design replicated thrice at Horticulture farm, MARS, UAS, Raichur. during kharif 2017 and assessed for their genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance as per cent of mean for twenty two parameters concerned with growth, flowering, yield and quality. The genotypic and phenotypic coefficient of variability were high for iodine content, fruit yield per hectare and number of seeds per fruit indicating maximum amount of variability present in the genotypes for these characters which would be amenable for further selection. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance over mean was observed for number of ridges on fruit surface, number of seeds per fruit, fruit girth, average fruit weight, fruit yield per plant, number of fruits per plant and plant height at 90 DAS indicates predominance additive gene action. Thus, there is ample scope for improving these characters through direct selection. Correlation studies revealed significant and positive association of fruit yield per plant with number of flowers per plant, average fruit weight, number of leaves per plant at 90 DAS, per cent fruit set, number of primary branches per plant at 90 DAS and number of fruits per plant. Path analysis studies revealed high direct effect of average fruit weight on fruit yield per plant. In the present investigation it can be concluded that the genotypes NDO-10 and JNDO-5 recorded higher fruit yield per plant with superior quality parameters compared to other genotypes.en_US
