Combining ability analysis was carried out by using eight lines viz., OP female, RK 123, RK 101, Safal (OP), Oviruchi 10, TM 126, TM-1,TM-7008 and four testers viz. Diamond, Salamat, Bamkim, and Roma VF to obtain 32 cross combinations during the Rabi season of 2010-11. Crosses were made between lines and testers using testers as males and lines as females. The experimental material comprising of 44 entries (32 F1s, eight lines, and four testers) were transplanted on 14 November 2012 when the seedlings attained the height of 15 cm after 35 days of sowing in the nursery beds. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications having plot size of 4.0 m2 with a spacing of 60 cm × 40 cm in 1m wide bed. Data on plant height (cm), number of secondary branches per plant, number of clusters per plant, fruits Combining ability analysis was carried out by using eight lines viz., OP female, RK 123, RK 101, Safal (OP), Oviruchi 10, TM 126, TM-1,TM-7008 and four testers viz.

Data on plant height (cm), number of secondary branches per plant, number of clusters per plant, fruits per plant, fruits per cluster, 5-fruit weight (g), fruit length (cm), fruit diameter (cm), locules per fruit, and yield per plant (g) were recorded. Recommended dose of fertilizer (550, 450, and 250 kg/ha of urea, TSP, MP, and 10 t/ha of cowdung) were applied (Razzaque et al., 2000). The collected data were statistically analyzed following the standard method of Kempthorne (1957).
