Abstract

The present study was conducted at the College of Horticulture and Forestry, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana during the summer season of 2021 and 2022. Plant material consisted of 49 advance breeding lines of bitter gourd including 2 checks namely Punjab-15 (local check) and Prachi (commercial check) in simple lattice design of 7x7 with two replications. Evaluation was done for different yield and quality traits. Among the test entries, range for marketable yield per plant varied from 476.61 to 2102.86 and it was highest in PAUBG-1521 (2102 g/plant) followed by PAUBG-200, PAUBG-211, PAUBG-208 and PAUBG-1514 performed better over the checks and lowest in PAUBG-222 (476.02 g/plant). Number of fruits per plant, fruit length, fruit weight, total soluble sugar, non-reducing sugar and momordicine content was highest  in PAUBG-1521 (33.56), (14.23 cm), (61.18 g) (9.29 g/100g), (7.25 g/100g) and (50.21 mg/100g) respectively.
