dc.description.abstractThe present investigation entitled “Studies on genetic variability, correlation and path analysis in brinjal (solanum melongena L.) under low hill conditions of H.P.” was conducted during kharif 2018 at Experimental Research Farm, Department of Vegetable Science, COH&F Neri, Hamirpur (H.P) to study the variability, heritability and genetic advance, correlation and path analysis. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with three replications and 20 genotypes including check variety “Pusa Anupam” were planted for studying the extent of variability and performance of each genotype. The study revealed a significant difference among the genotypes for all the characters studied. A wide variability was observed for the characters in the genotypes. B-COHFNERI-9 (1.11 kg) followed by Arka Kusumkar (1.08 kg), Pusa Purple Cluster (0.97 kg), B-COHFNERI-4 (0.95 kg) and B-COHFNERI-2 (0.92 kg) recorded higher marketable fruit yield per plant as compared to the check variety, “Pusa Anupam” (0.81 kg). High magnitude of GCV and PCV were recorded for the traits like number of marketable fruits per plant, fruit length, stem diameter and weight of 100 seeds. High estimates of heritability and genetic advance were recorded for days to first picking, pedicel length, fruit length, average fruit weight, number of marketable fruits per plant, number of primary branches per plant, plant height, stem diameter, plant spread, weight of 100 seeds. Results also indicated that marketable fruit yield per plant had positive and significant correlation with days to 50% flowering, number of marketable fruits per plant and stem diameter. Further, path coefficient analysis revealed that number of marketable fruits per plant had maximum positive direct effect on marketable fruit yield per plant followed by fruit diameter and weight of 100 seeds. Thus, hybridization between the genotypes can be very effective for further improvement in brinjal.en_US
