Abstract Brinjal, Solanum melongena Linnaeus belongs to family solanaceae also known
Eggplant or Baingan and it is the most important widely grown vegetable both for raw and …

Genetic divergence is a measure of selection of parents to produce potential hybrids and for
isolation of transgressive segregants from hybrids in further filial generations. The objective …

Correlation studies with twenty five F1 hybrids in brinjal revealed that yield per plant showed
positive correlation with number of branches per plant, percentage of long styled flowers …

The biochemical basis of host plant resistance for shoot and fruit borer of brinjal was
investigated using selected genotypes from the back crosses involving cultivated brinjal …

Brinjal holds an important place in China, India, Japan and Europe. The information on the
mode of inheritance of quantitative traits associated with yield, which include borer free …

Heterosis has been amply exploited in developing hybrids in brinjal. In India, only 17.8%
area of brinjal cultivation is under hybrid seed due to lack of appropriate hybrids for specific …

An attempt was made to understand the diversity of trichomes both at morphological and
chemical levels in wild (Solanum viarum, S. mammosum, S. indicum, S. gilo, S. torvum) and …

In Tamil Nadu, brinjal is grown over an area of 10,418 ha with 81,820 tonnes of an annual
production (Anon, 2001). The study on genotypic association among yield and its …

In vegetables the factors for biotic stress are pests, diseases and nematodes. The damages
induced by these factors reflect highly on production, productivity and quality. Although …

Thirteen genotypes of brinjal were collected from various places of Tamil Nadu and other
states and evaluated during September 2017-January 2018. Among these, the plant height …
