Abstract Eggplant(Solanum melongena L.) is one of important vegetable in China.During Chinese‘The Twelfth Five-year Plan’,it get remarkable achievement in eggplant genetic breeding research:there are more than 70 new eggplant varieties with good quality,resistant and high yield are used in main vegetable producing areas;a number of new eggplant resources with good agricultural traits are screened and innovated;conventional breeding techniques,such as heterosis utilization,and modern biotechnology breeding techniques,such as haploid induction and molecular marker assisted selection and so on,have made important progress.The paper summarize eggplant main research achievement on new variety selection,germplasm resources,breeding and seed production techniques in recent five years,and discuss the research direction on eggplant genetics breeding in the future.
