Wild brinjal (Solanum gilo) genotypes were collected from different parts of North eastern region of India and evaluated to study the variability in vegetative, fruit yield and quality characters at research farm of department of Vegetable Science, College of Horticulture and Forestry, Central Agricultural University, Pasighat, Arunachal Pradesh, India during 2015 to 2016. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 15 genotypes and 3 replications. The results showed that the genotypes exhibited marked variation in growth, fruiting characteristics and biochemical components. Among all the genotypes, fruit weight (27.86 g), total carbohydrate (375.78 mg/100 g), ascorbic acid content (16.73 mg/100 g), total alkaloid (4.68 mg/100 g) was found highest in CHFG-4. CHFG-5 had highest number of fruits per plant (93.66), fruit yield per plant (1.97 kg), total phenol (15.27 mg/100 g). Hence, for fruit yield and quality characteristics, the genotypes CHFG-4 and CHFG-5 were best suited for cultivation in different parts of NEH region.
