Performance studies on different okra varieties and hybrids under arid climatic conditions of Rajasthan
An experiment entitled âPerformance and genetic variability studies in okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench)â was carried out during August 2019 to November 2019 at the Research farm, College of Agriculture, Jodhpur (Rajasthan). The experiment comprised of 12 varieties and hybrids of okra viz. âP-8â, âPusa Bhindi-5â, âSamrat F1 Hybridâ, âPunjab Suhawaniâ, âArka Nikitaâ, âShakshi F1 Hybridâ, âPalam Komalâ, âKashi Krantiâ, âShakti F1 Hybridâ, âArka Anamikaâ, âKashi Pragatiâ and âLaxmi F1 Hybridâ and was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. Significant differences were found amongst the varieties and hybrids of okra for the studied characters. The âArka Anamikaâ recorded the maximum number of branches per plant (2.80), stem diameter (17.10 mm), number of leaves per plant (69.06), number of fruit per plant (25.80), fruit yield per plant (319.78 g), fruit yield per plot (4.95 kg), estimated fruit yield per hectare (122.30 q). The âPalam Komalâ recorded the maximum plant height (139.73) and numbers of nodes on main stem (30.80). The âLaxmi F1 Hybridâ produced the largest leaves (156.86 cm2). The earliest first flower anthesis and 50% flowering and first picking were noted in âKashi Pragatiâ (38.67, 39.33 and 45.40 DAS, respectively). The âPusa Bhindi-5â recorded the maximum fruit length (12.36 cm). The âSamrat F1 Hybridâ recorded the maximum fruit diameter (16.02 mm) and fruit weight (12.99 g). The maximum shelf life of fruit was recorded in âKashi Krantiâ (4.47 Days). Five ridges per fruit were exhibited in all the okra varieties and hybrids. From the present investigation it can be concluded that okra variety âArka Anamikaâ performed best for various growth and yield traits under arid climatic conditions of Rajasthan
