Abstract
About 200 germplasm lines have been collected from India and abroad.
These germplasm consist of the cultivated genotypes of Solanum melongena and related species like S. khasianum, S. gilo, S. aethiopicum (from AVRDC). All the germplasm have been evaluated and characterized and promising types have been identified for important horticultural traits.
These germplasm have been conserved under medium term storage facilities which are available at Pantnagar Centre for Plant Genetic Resources.
Improved cultivars like Pant Samrat, Pant Rituraj, Pant Brinjal-4 and Pant Brinjal Hybrid-1 have been developed at Pantnagar utilizing the brinjal germplasm.
Round-fruited cultivars like PB 60 and PB 61, long-fruited cultivars like PB 64, PB 66 and long green-fruited type as PB 70 genotypes are being tested under All India Coordinated Research Improvement Project on Vegetables.
Future thrust shall be on the development of superior high yielding genotypes/hybrids having resistance to biotic stresses.
