Abstract:

Top crosses of brinjal Bilichandubadane × mullugaibadane produced from F1 generation were in augmented design at ZARS Shimogga in Kharif 2017. Evaluation of direction degree of associationand path coefficient analysis between yield and yield attributes traits was studies in brinjal (Solanum longena L.). Traits like days to first flowering, Number of fruits per plant, Number of flowers, Plant height, fruit width and fruit weight, fruit length, fruits per cluster were found to possess significant and positive correlation with fruit yield per plant and also showed positive direct effect in path co-efficient analysis. It was observed that with increase in plant height, there was corresponding increases of fruit yield per hectare. Number of branch per plant had significant negative association with fruit yield per plant. These characters play a major role in recombination breeding and suggested that direct selection based on these traits will be rewarded for crop improvement of brinjal.
