Fruit shape is one of the main assessment indicators for the commodity of horticultural crops.Clarifying the genetic law of eggplant fruit shape can provide a basis for the development of relevant molecular markers and the selection of new fruit-shaped varieties that consumers like.The genetic populations of P1,P2,F1,F2 were con-structed with the oval eggplant BC01 and long strip eggplant Rf.The major gene+polygene mixed genetic model was used to analyze the fruit longitudinal diameter(FLD),transverse diameter(FTD)and fruit shape index(FSI).The results showed that there was a very significant correlation among FLD,FTD and FSI of eggplant.FLD,FTD and FSI of F2 generation presented a unimodal skew distribution.FLD is controlled by a pair of additive-dominant main genes,and the genetic effect is mainly controlled by additive effect.The main genes play a synergistic role,and the heritability of main gene in the F2 generation is 73.41%.FTD is controlled by two pairs of additive main genes that act synergistically.The heritability of main genes in the F2 generation was 90.99%.FSI is controlled by a pair of additive major genes.The heritability of the major genes in the F2 generation was 81.46%.
