Abstract
The results showed that carpelloid fruit development was significantly influenced by plant age genotype and the interactions of these two effects. Incidence of carpellody in all five genotypes declined with increase in plant age. This was found to be related to a slow down in vegetative growth in older plants. A strong correlation was found between incidence of fruit carpellody and internode length among four of the genotypes (r 0.68 to 0.86 ). A high heritability estimate (h2 82.34) was obtained for carpellody of stamens but effective phenotypic selection may be interfered by the 'change-in rate' type of interaction between genotype and plant age. The implications of the present findings in breeding and selection efforts against this undersirable trait are discussed
