ABSTRACT
Fourteen advanced inbred lines of ridge gourd were evaluated in RCBD with three replications. Analysis of variance revealed that highly significant variation among genotypes for the characters for the viz., characters such as node number for the first female flower appearance, days taken for the first male flower appearance, days taken for the first female flower appearance, vine length, leaf length, fruit length, ovary length, peduncle length, fruit girth, number of fruits per vine, fruit weight, fruit yield/vine and fruit yield/ha. High PCV, GCV, heritability, genetic advance were observed for fruit length (cm), number of fruits per vine, yield per vine (kg) and fruit yield (t/ha).
Key words: Luffa acutangula, Genotypes, Fruit, Yield
