A field experiment was conducted during rainy season 2016-17 in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replication at the Department of Vegetable Science, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur, Chhattisgarh. The experimental material consists of six lines (viz., IGB-17, IGB-54, IGB-55, IGB-62, IGB-88 and IGB-92) and four testers namely Pant Rituraj, Pant Samrat, Kashi Taru and IBWL) and Line x Tester mating design was followed in this study. The resultant 24 hybrids were evaluated for fourteen yield and yield contributing traits in brinjal. In the present study, parents and hybrids differed significantly among themselves for growth characters. The cross IGB-92 x PS recorded the highest plant height, while the highest yielding crosses viz., IGB-17 x PR, IGB-17 x KT, IGB-92 x PS, IGB-92 x PR, IGB-62 x IBWL, IGB-88 x IBWL had relatively medium plant height with more number of primary branches. The crosses, IGB-17 x PR, IGB-17 x KT, IGB-92 x PS, IGB-92 x PR, IGB-62 x IBWL, IGB-88 x IBWL showed superior per se performance, therefore, recommended for generation advancement and selection of desirable progeny lines useful for Chhattisgarh plains.
