The aim of this study was to identify which of different lines may be useful as donors of favourable alleles in the improvement of the quantitative traits of the elite single cross hybrid. The fruit length, fruit diameter, number of locules per a fruit, pericarp thickness, the number of fruit per plant, fruit weight and fruit weight per plant were investigated. Yield components in six lines and their nine hybrids were determined on the basisi of three-replicate field trials set up according to the randomised block design in 2000. Obtained results sugest that lines could be used as donors of favourable alleles for the improvement of yield components of an elite hybrid. The best potential donors for the improvement of the elite hybrid B-99 x Au-09 were estimated on the basis of results gained on observed lines.
