Within the Research and Development Institute for Vegetable and Flower Growing Vidra, in 2024 was carried out an experience in which were studied 4 cultivars (Luiza, Belona, Eleonora and Tudora) and 10 advanced homozygous lines of eggplants from the collection of the Breeding and Seed Production Laboratory. The genotypes were compared in the comparative crop field. Physiological and biometric measurements were carried out, in order to establish the main phenophases of growth and development and the yield potential of each cultivar and line studied. Some genotypes present valuable characteristics such as high yield potential, while others stand out for their earliness. Due to its various properties, the studied material has the potential to be used in eggplant breeding programs.References
