Abstract: In the present investigation, 14 genotypes will be grown in the during rainy season 2016-2017 at the field experimentation centre of the Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Allahabad (U.P.). The mean sum of squares due to various sources of variance for different characters of ridge gourd genotypes. The results indicated highly significant variation among the genotypes for the 18 characters studied viz., vine length at 90 days after sowing, days to first female and male flower, node to first female flower, days to first harvest, days to last harvest, sex ratio, per cent fruit set, number of fruits per plant, fruit yield per plant, fruit yield per plot, fruit yield per hectare, average fruit weight, fruit length and fruit diameter. Fruit yield per plot (kg) was maximum in Arka Sumeet followed by Arka Sujat and Dharidan Local and minimum yield per plot was observed in Neel gang Local. The mean fruit diameter was maximum in Jaipur Long, followed by Arka Sumeet and Arka Sujat and minimum fruit diameter was recorded in Neelgang Local.
