Abstract: The present investigation entitled “Evaluation of F1 progenies for fruit, seed and yield character of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench)†was carried out during kharif season, 2016-2017, at the Instructional cum-Research-Farm, Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, Latur, VNMKV, Parbhani. The experiment was laid out in a Complete Randomized Block Design with eight treatments and three replications. The experiment consisted of eight different treatments viz; T1(Parbhani Kranti [checks]), T2 (Pusa-A4 x Parbhani Bhendi), T3 (Parbhani Bhendi x Phule Utkarsha), T4 (Pusa A4 x BO-2), T5 (BO- 2x Kashi Pragati), T6 (Pusa-A4x Phule Utkarsha), T7 (BO-2 x Phule Utkarsha), T8(Hybrid No. 10 [Check]). Significantly maximum length of pod (cm), diameter of pod (cm), number of pods per plant, average weight of pod (g), were recorded by treatment T2, The maximum number of seed per pod, seed yield per pod, were recorded by treatment T2.The maximum fruit yield per plant (g), fruit yield per plot, fruit yield per hectare (q/ha) and no. of picking were obtained in treatment T2. Present investigation indicated that, the highest fruits, seeds and yield (q/ha) of okra should be obtained by treatment T2.
