Author(s): TS Kale, VD Padekar and AD Bhusnar
Abstract: The present Investigation was carried out to study the extent of heterosis, inbreeding depression through six generation mean analysis (P1, P2, F1, F2, BC1 and BC2 derived) of three crosses for yield and yield contributing character in ridge gourd (Luffa acutangula L.). The material was evaluated in a Randomized Block Design with two replications during summer 2018. The magnitude of heterosis revealed that, the cross combinations Pusa Jwala x Hingoli Local and DCC-25 x G-4 showed significant heterosis over better and mid parent. The inbreeding depression were positively and negatively lower significant indicate that the presence of vigour in F2.
