CONCLUSION 1/2

There was intense variability in agro-morphological characters studied among all 29 accessions of okra.

The most diverse and distantly related accessions with outstanding traits were Mamolega, Wune mana

and Cs-Legon and could be potential sources of variability for future breeding work.

Moderate to strong association exists between pairs of quantitative yield traits in the okra landraces

studied.

The output of the PCA revealed that different characters contributed differently to the total variation.

The ISSR primers yielded low level of polymorphism among the 29 accessions; 25 accessions however, were identified as possible duplicates

Indiana, Yeji-Local, Asante type II and Atomic were detected as distinct unique genotypes and could be unique sources of genes for improvement programmes.


RECOMMENDATIONS

Topmost accessions with desirable qualities (Indiana, Yeji-Local, Asante type II and Atomic) could be utilised for

developing commercial variety for the export market.

Collections should be extended to other regions and base collections in the genebank of PGRRI at Bunso, should be

thoroughly characterised and for further conservation

Genes linked to agronomically important traits in okra should be genetically mapped through Quantitative Traits Loci

(QTLs)

Okra genome should be sequenced to develop SSRs

screening for secondary metabolites (HPLC, TLC, LCMS ) should be done

Protein, antioxidants, TFC, TPC of leaves, crude fibre, total carbohydrate, other nutritional constituents (elemental, vitamins

etc) in both pods and leaves should be studied.
