Abstract

Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L) Moench) belongs to
family Malvaceae with 2n = 130 chromosomes. It is
one of the most important vegetable crops, which is
grown throughout the tropical and subtropical parts of
the world. Being a day neutral plant, it is cultivated in
every season in one or other parts of the country. The
improvement in genetic make-up i.e. growing habit of
the plant increases the harvest index and improvement
in resistance to insect-pest and diseases ultimately
increase the yield.
