Twenty diverse cultivars of brinjal (egg plant) planted in a Completely Randomized block design (CRBD) at Research Farm AKS University, Satna, during Rabi season on December 2022. Data were collected for twelve quantitative traits and estimated for variance, genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance. The analysis of variance indicated the existence of sufficient amount of variability among genotypes for all the studied characters. The maximum GCV and PCV was observed for the traits viz., fruit length (cm.), harvest index (%), no. of fruits/plant, no of seed/fruits, seed yield/plant (g.), test weight (g.), and plant height (cm.). Higher estimates (h2b) >80% were observed for fruit length (cm.), test weight (g.), days to 80% fruit maturity, fruit diameter (cm.), days to 50 % flowering, plant height (cm.), harvest index (%), biological yield/plant (g.), no. of fruits/plant, seed yield/plant (g.), and no. of seed/fruits. High estimate of expected genetic advance as percent of mean at 5% were found for fruit length (cm.) followed by harvest index (%), no. of fruits/plant, no. of seed/fruits, seed yield/plant (g.), test weight, plant height (cm.), and biological yield/plant (g.).
