Ten pre-breeding lines of F4 generation green long brinjal of Green Long x IIHR-3 along with their parents and checks (Arka Anand and Arka Kusumakar) were evaluated for bacterial wilt resistance after artificial inoculation and good horticultural properties. The results revealed that among 10 families of F4 lines derived from the cross Green Long X IIHR-3 the progenies viz., 12-36-164-7, 12-36-164-10, 12-36-164-11 and 12-36-164-14 showed moderate resistance to the bacterial wilt disease, whereas, 12-36-46-3, 12-36-46-6, 12-36-164-1, 12-36-170-9, 12-36-170-11 and 12-36-170-19 found to be resistance. F4 pre-breeding lines had shown a larger extent of variation for all the traits when compared to the interfamily variation, so there is a need of further advancement of generation to attain the homozygosity. The study lead to identification of superior green round brinjal plants resistant to bacterial wilt along with good horticultural properties from F3:4 segregating population.
