Study of Four Cucumber Germplasm Genotypes, Grown in Qatar and the Indian Agro-climatic Zone, Based on Its Phenotypic Traits

This study included four genotypes of cucumber (IC257296, IC420405, GYNE-5, PUSA SANYOG) which were evaluated based on phenotypic traits when grown under two different soil zones Doha (Qatar) and Meerut (India). Statistical analysis to estimate various genetic parameters like genotypic variance, coefficient variation (PCV GCV), broad sense heritability gain principal component (PCA) was done in order assess the magnitude variability for agro-metrical characters. In Indian zone, highest yield observed while, Qatar SANYOG. The (PCV) higher than its corresponding counterpart (GCV) all characters studied. High broad-sense associated with both except fruit length. Days edible maturity, length width showed low qatar zone; hence, heterosis breeding would be recommended. Principal involved vine days maturity as most discriminating trait that accounted greater it should considered improvement programs. Correlation represent positively correlated width, per plant positive significant correlation Present findings suggest SANYOG may cultivated other areas similar climatic conditions. will help improve protected agriculture model revenue generation farmers.
