e0“A study was carried out to estimate the genetic variability, heritability in broad sense and genetic advance in percent of mean among the 53 genotypes of brinjal”
e4“The very high estimates of heritability coupled with high values of genetic advance over per cent mean were observed for traits such as number of primary branches per plant (at 60, 90 and 120 DAT), number of secondary branches per plant at 60 DAT, stem girth (at 60, 90 and 120 DAT), leaf area, number of fruits per plant, average fruit weight (g), fruit yield per plant, fruit yield per plot, fruit yield per ha, fruit length (cm), fruit width (cm), calyx length (cm) and calyx width (cm), total phenols, root girth at collar region, root dry weight (g)”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Association Phenotypic coefficient of variation was higher than genotypic coefficient of variation for all traits in brinjal.
- Observation Genetic advance in percent of mean ranged from 3.45% to 89.57% among brinjal genotypes.
- Observation Mean sum of squares due to genotypes was significant for all traits in brinjal.
- Observation Very high heritability with high genetic advance was observed for leaf area, number of fruits per plant and average fruit weight in brinjal.
- Observation Very high heritability with high genetic advance was observed for fruit yield per plant, per plot and per hectare in brinjal.
- Observation Very high heritability with high genetic advance was observed for fruit length, fruit width and calyx length in brinjal.
- Observation Very high heritability with high genetic advance was observed for calyx width, total phenols and root girth in brinjal.
- Observation Very high heritability with high genetic advance was observed for root dry weight in brinjal.
- Mechanism The traits with high heritability and genetic advance are under the influence of additive gene action.
- Recommendation There is a great chance of effective crop improvement for greater yield in brinjal.
