Genotypic potentiality and selection index of ridge gourd (Luffa acutangula L.)

Bangladesh Journal of Botany, 2020
Fifteen ridge gourd genotypes were investigated to select the superior genotypes. The overall analysis reveals that PCV was higher than GCV for all the traits. Significant variation was found among genotypes for the qualitative traits under divergence analysis. The selection index reveals that maximum genetic gain and relative efficiency over selection
