Abstract: | The present study was carried out with view to formulate suitable selection index for fruit yield using discriminant function technique and to test its efficiency over direct selection . Twelve established varieties or brinjal were studied for yield and associated characters. The characters studied were, plant height, number of branches, number of leaves, number of flowers, number of fruits, percentage of fruit set, mean weight of fruits and yield . The analysis showed that these varieities do not differ significantly except for the characters, namely, number of leaves and number of flowers. |
