The results showed that Hybrids Red Lathkani \u00d7 New Lathkani, Istanboli \u00d7New Lathkani and Red Lathani \u00d7 Old Lathkani had significant and high significant mid-parent hetersis for number of days to first flowering, and Istanboli \u00d7 New Lathkani and Red Lathkani \u00d7 New Lathkani had significant and high significant best parent hetersis for fruit length. Also, the low occurrence of inbreeding depression\u00a0 for the number of branches\/plant\u00a0 or its non-occurrence at all in other traits may be due to the influence of these traits by the addition gene action.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times; font-size: 17px;\"><strong>Key words<\/strong>: Okra, Heterosis, Inbreeding depression, half-Diallel crossing, earliness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times; font-size: 17px;\"><strong>Full paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/v10n4p29.pdf\">pdf<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reham Nbeaa(1)*, Bassam Abo-Trabi (1) and Ehab Ahmad (2) (1).
