Abstract:

Genetic variability in F2 populations of two commercial hybrids i.e., Naga and NS-3 were studied for growth, earliness, yield and quality parameters in an un replicated trial at College of Horticulture, UHS, Bagalkot, during Jan-March 2018. The results revealed that PCV was higher than GCV for almost all the characters However, high heritability along with high genetic advance as per cent over mean was observed for the traits such as vine length at 60 DAP, node to first female flowering, node to first male flowering, average fruit weight, fruit length, TSS and Vit-C indicated that these characters are heritable to the next generation and can be improved by simple selection methods.


Keywords: Ridge gourd (Luffa acutangula L.), cucurbitaceae, tropical and subtropical regions
