Abstract

The present investigation was carried out at the Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh during the year 2023-24 with a view to check the performance of different hybrids of sponge gourd in terms of growth, yield and quality. Hybrids comprised of H1 (AVT-1 2021/SPGHYB-1), H2 (AVT-1 2021/SPGHYB-2), H3 (AVT-1 2021/SPGHYB-3), H4 (AVT-1 2021/SPGHYB-4), H5 (AVT-1 2021/SPGHYB-5), H6 (AVT-1 2021/SPGHYB-6), H7 (GENNEXT Ayushi) and H8 (VNR Alok). Among the different hybrids VNR Alok performs best in terms of growth parameters like early germination, maximum vine length, flowering parameters like earliness in flowering and maturity, yield parameters like early fruit setting, maximum length of fruit, early harvesting, highest fruit yield/ha and quality parameters like Vit-C and TSS. Maximum B:C ratio was obtained in the same hybrid.
