Abstract
Further evaluation of 16 eggplant lines resistant to bacterial wilt under field conditions in June, 1966 to May, 1967 revealed that the most resistant line based on the average bacterial wilt index during the rainy and dry season was line 64-43-36.
The heaviest yielder in terms of weight and number of fruits were lines 426-2(1) and 422 for the rainy and dry season, respectively. Lines 404 and 64-442-2 produced the least damaged fruits in the rainy and dry season planting, respectively.
Line 64-43-36 was the best adapted line in soil infected with bacterial wilt while lines 426-2(1) and 422 are recommended for rainy and dry season planting, respectively, in soil relatively free from bacterial wilt.
Wide variations in horticultural characteristics were exhibited by the 16 eggplant lines.
