Abstract: The present investigation was carried out at Horticultural Research cum Instructional Farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur (C.G.). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design comprised of nine bottle gourd genotypes were evaluated for different quantitative characters. The genotype 2016/B06VAR-3 was found to possess maximum number of days for appearing first male flowers, pusa naveen was recorded to minimum days for appearing first female flowers and earliest days to 50 % flowering. The genotype pusa naveen was noted for earliest node number at first female flowers and genotype 2016/B06VAR-7 for maximum fruit length was recorded. The genotype 2016/B06VAR-8 was found to be maximum fruit girth, maximum number of fruits per plant and maximum number of branches per plant. Performance studies revealed that the genotypes 2016/B06VAR-8 and 2016/B06VAR-1 were found promising for fruit yield.
