The present study was conducted in okra to estimate the magnitude of heterosis and to identify superior cross combinations for yield and its component traits. Thirty six F1s were developed by crossing 6 lines viz., Pusa Sawani (L1), Parbhani Kranti (L2), Arka Abhay (L3), Arka Anamika (L4), AE 65 (L5) and 14/11 (L6) and 6 testers viz., AE 64 (T1), AE 66 (T2), AE 17 (T3),14/4 (T4), 14/5 (T5) and 14/10 (T6) of okra in line x tester design during summer of 2018. All the 36 F1s along with their 12 parents (6 lines and 6 testers) and one standard check (Bhendi Hybrid CO 4) were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with two replications at
