    Heterotic Performance of Telfairia occidentalis Hook (Fluted Pumpkin) F1 Hybrids

    Ann Ikwunma Nwonuala
    Two field experiments were conducted in the early cropping season of 2013 and 2014 at the teaching and research farm of the Federal University of Technology, Owerri, to select and hybridize Telfairia occidentalis landraces for increased productivity and market value improvement and also to determine the performance of the first filial (F1) hybrids. The experiments were laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) replicated three times. In the first experiment, the treatments were made up of five Telfairia occidentalis landraces while in the second experiment there were ten treatments made up of five hybrids and five selfed landraces. There were significant difference among the landraces and the hybrids in almost all the vegetative and reproductive yields. Most of the hybrids showed positive heterosis in vine length, leaf area, leaf yield per hectare, number of female flowers per plant, number of matured fruits per hectare, and number of seeds per fruit. This positive heterosis displayed by the hybrids form the basis for the selection of the hybrids EN/AB and EN/AN, for further studies in vegetative yield and the hybrids EN/RV, EN/AN for reproductive yields.
