An experiment was conducted on okra genotypes Parbhani Kranti and Arka Abhay, their F1 hybrids and 2 F2 populations to assess the genetic architecture of certain quantitative traits. Arkha Abhay was best for high seed yield/plant (62.89 g), capsule length (12.64 cm), capsule weight (15.66 g) and seed yield/capsule (3.71 g) whereas Parbhani Kranti registered as a superior parent for number of capsules/plant (16.60) and days to first flower (44.90).
