Evaluation of Yield and Quality Traits in Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench) Genotypes under the Hill Zone of Karnataka, India

Résumé

An experiment was conducted during the Summer 2024 at the Department of Vegetable Science, College of Horticulture, Mudigere, Karnataka, India, using twenty-one promising okra genotypes with three replications in a randomized block design to identify the best-performing genotypes for cultivation in the Hill Zone of Karnataka. Observations on important quantitative and quality characters were recorded. Analyzed data revealed that all characters showed significant effect. The genotype Halu bhendi gave significantly highest fruit yield per plant of 387.03 g/plant followed by Sirsi local- 01 and Siddapura local-02 with the yield of 363.06 g/plant and 333.74 g/plant, respectively. Average fruit weight of 22.45 g was recorded significantly highest in the genotype Halu bhendi followed by Sirsi local – 01 (21.42 g) and Siddapura local- 02 (18.69 g). Maximum Number of fruits per plant was observed in Siddapura local – 02 (17.86) followed by Halu bhendi (17.24) and Siddapura local- 02 (16.95). Maximum shelf-life was recorded in Sirsi local-01(6.67 days). The genotype Arbhavi local recorded highest content of chlorophyll a, b and total Chlorophyll. The crude fibre content was found maximum in Jamkhandi local- 01 (14.31 %). On the basis of these observations, it may be concluded that the genotypes Halu bhendi, Sirsi local- 01 and Siddapura local- 02 were found most suitable okra genotypes for cultivation in the Hill zone of Karnataka.
