Abstract/ Executive Summary:

Thirty eight (38) brinjal germplasm was collected from different location of Patuakhali-Barguna region and planted at Regional Horticulture Research Station, Lebukhali Patuakhali during kharif 1 season 0f 2018 for preliminary evaluation. The germplasm showed wide range of variability among them. Among the germplasm SMP 39, SMP 42gave highest yield per plant and 1-6, 1-10, 3-11, 7-1, 7-2, 7-6, SMP 38, SMP 41, and SMP 51 gave moderate yield. Among them 1-6, 7-1, 7-2 and 7-6 are large fruited and green skin color. 1-10, 3-11, SMP 39, SMP 42 and SMP 51 is also large fruited and purple to purple black skin color. SMP 38 is long with white skin color and SMP 41 is large fruited and white skin color. As market demand of brinjal depends on shape, size and color, those lines could be trialed in separate groups for further evaluation for variety release.

Keywords: Brinjal, Germplasm, High yield, Disease and Insect resistance

Location: Regional Horticulture Research Station, Lebukhali Patuakhali, Bangladesh

Start Date: 00-00-2017

End Date: 00-00-2018

Program Area: Variety and Species

Commodity: Eggplant

Objectives:

To find out the suitable brinjal germplasm for high yield as well as disease and insect resistance.

Methodology:

Thirty eight (38) brinjal germplasm was collected from different location of Patuakhali-Barguna region. The seeds were sown on 2^nd December, 2017 in the seed bed and 40 days old seedlings were transplanted to the main field on 11^th January, 2018. The experiment was laid out in RCB design with three replication. The spacing was 75 cm x 70 cm. the land was fertilized with cowdung, urea, TSP, MoP, Gypsum @ 10 ton cow dung, 172 kg-30kg-125kg-18kg N-P-K-S respectively. Entire amount of cowdung, TSP and gypsum and 1/3^rd of MoP was applied during land Preparation. Urea and rest of the MoP was applied at four equal split at 10, 25, 45 and 60 days after transplanting. Intercultural operation was done as and when necessary. Data on different character was recorded and analyzed by STAR software.

Achievement/Findings:

Germplasm SMP 39, SMP 42gave highest yield per plant and 1-6, 1-10, 3-11, 7-1, 7-2, 7-6, SMP 38, SMP 41, and SMP 51 gave moderate yield. Among them 1-6, 7-1, 7-2 and 7-6 are large fruited and green skin color. 1-10, 3-11, SMP 39, SMP 42 and SMP 51 is also large fruited and purple to purple black skin color. SMP 38 is long with white skin color and SMP 41 is large fruited and white skin color. As market demand of brinjal depends on shape, size and color, those lines could be trialed in separate groups for further evaluation for variety release.
