Abstract

The present investigation comprising of seventeen genotypes was carried out to evaluate the performance of newly developed cytoplasmic male sterile lines of cabbage for various quantitative traits. The analysis of variance revealed that mean squares due to genotypes were significant for all the traits, highlighting the presence of sufficient genetic variability among the CMS lines. Based on the per se performance with respect to marketable head yield and related traits, the best CMS line identified was II-105-CMS (231.48 q/ha) which was statistically at par with other two CMS lines namely II-M-CMS (215.92 q/ha) and III-105-CMS (210.37 q/ha). All these three CMS lines with respect to marketable head yield were also found quite promising in other important horticultural traits and from consumer’s point of view.
