Genetic Variability, Heritability and Path Analysis in Snake Gourd (Trichosanthes anguina L.)

To Study the Growth and Development of Yellow Melon Crop (Cucumis melo L.) under Different Growing Conditions at Different Levels of Spacing

“…This could be attributed to the positive response of yellow melon to favourable microclimate under the protected condition which may have enhanced the growth and development by better uptake of nutrients by the plants leading to increased rate of plant metabolic processes like, photosynthesis, respiration and better assimilation of carbohydrates and build-up of cells. Similar results of increased vine length have been reported by Pant et al, (2001) in cucumber, Rahman et al, (2002) in snake gourd, Ahmed et al, (2005) in bottle gourd, Raja et al, (2007) in bitter gourd, Anjanappa et al, (2012) in cucumber andCampagnol et al, (2012) in watermelon. Data pertaining to the number of leaves per vine of the yellow melon was recorded starting from the fifteenth day after transplanting to ninety days at an interval of fifteen days under protected as well as open-field conditions.…”

Genetic Variability, Correlation and Path Analysis of F5 Generation of Ridge Gourd (Luffa acutangula (L.) Roxb.) for Yield and Quality

“…Fruit diameter showed significant and positive correlation with flesh thickness (0.716). Rind thickness also exhibited significant and positive correlation with number of fruits per plant (0.724) in L 3 xT 2 cross and similar results were reported Lakshmi et al, (2000) in pumpkin and Rahman et al, (2002) in snake gourd.…”

Morphological Characterization and Evaluation Of Snake Gourd Genotypes for Fruit Yield, Yield Attributes and Other Characters

“…It ranged from 3.0 to 7.0 m. The longest vine was observed in TC 1 (7.0 m) followed by TC 3 (5.95 m), TC 5 (5.95 m), while the shortest vine was observed in TC 55 (3.0 m) followed by TC 48 (3.25 m). Significant variation in vine length of snake gourd was also reported by Ara et al (2013), Ahsan et al (2014) and Rahman and Ahmed (2014). Ara et al (2013) found the vine length of snake gourd ranging from 1.08 to 1.80 m. Ahsan et al (2014) noted the vine length of snake gourd in the range of 4.64 to 6.17 m whereas Rahman and Ahmed (2014) recorded the vine length with a ranged from 3.30 to 6.75 m in the same crop.…”

The findings of the present study were close to those of Ahsan et al (2014) and Rahman and Ahmed (2014) in terms of vine length.…”
