The combining ability and heterosis of fruit yield and associated traits were studied in a 6×06 diallel crosses of okra (Abclmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench). The results showed that days to flowering, fruit no. /plant, yield, fruit diameter and fruit weight were controlled by additive and nonadditive gene. The reciprocal effects were significant for days to flowering, fruit no. /plant, fruit length and fruit weight., caution should be made for choosing inbred as male or female parents. The value was between 1.2 and 34.5 for ratio of general combining ability (GCA)/special combining ability (SCA), to show additive component than more.
