| Abstract/Description: | Eggplant, Solanum melongena L. is one of the most popular and major vegetable crops grown in South Asia and other parts of the world. It is an important source of plant-derived nutrients like minerals, available throughout the year and popular among the poor. Thirty two morphologically diverse eggplant germplasm accessions were analyzed for macro- and micro-minerals. Significant differences in the mineral content among the germplasm accessions were detected. Potassium and magnesium ranged from 177.19 to 274.48 mg and 6.25 to 18.34 mg/100 g fresh weight (FW), respectively. Copper, iron and zinc ranged from 0.024 to 0.178, 0.170 to 0.846 and 0.073 to 0.233 mg/100 g FW, respectively. Phenotypic co-efficient of variation and genotypic co-efficient of variation were high for the minerals studied except potassium. High broad sense heritability (84.44-97.07 % ) indicated the presence of additive gene effects. Significant positive correlation were found between zinc with potassium (r = 0.397), magnesium (r = 0.439) and copper (r = 0.409). Overall, two germplasm accessions IC090785 and IC383102 have been identified as rich sources for all minerals studied, which could be utilized further in breeding programme for developing mineral-rich varieties of eggplant |
