Information on magnitude of combining ability were obtained for fruit yield and its related components; involving eight parents and their 28 F1 hybrids (excluding reciprocal cross) along with a commercial hybrid check ‘GJOH-4’ of okra in randomized block design with three replications. The magnitude of sca variance was higher than gca variance for all the traits revealed preponderance of non-additive gene action for all the traits. The estimation of gca effects indicated that parents viz., Arka Abhay and NOL-18-14 were good general combiner for fruit yield and its related traits. The estimation of sca effects indicated that hybrids, viz., Arka abhay x GAO-5, Arka abhay x NOL-18-14 and GAO-5 x NOL-18-14 were exhibited high heterosis coupled with high sca effects also.
