| Description |
Okra is important vegetable crop of Malvaceae family. It can be grown during summer as well as rainy season. Okra can be easily grown throughout the year, but still the lack of genotypes having high yield, better quality and tolerance to diseases like Okra Yellow Vein Mosaic Virus makes its cultivation limited. Hence, there is urgent need of research on development of new genotype having good performance and high yield, the first step of which is studies on diverse genotypes. Hence, 30 genotypes including 4 national checks (VRO-6, Pusa Sawani, Arka Anamika, and Arka Abhay) were grown during Kharif season 2013-14, at Vegetable Research Farm, Department of Horticulture (Vegetable & Floriculture), Bihar Agricultural University, Sabour, Bhagalpur to study diversity among them and generate information on the genetics of their important traits that can be used in future breeding work. All the genotypes showed significant difference for the characters under study.
