Abstract

The bottle gourd (Lageneria sicereria (Mol.) Standl) is one of the most extensively cultivated cucurbitaceous vegetable crops throughout India. It is commonly grown in India for its immature edible fruits during summer and rainy season. This species also holds promise for its yet unexploited possible uses of oil and protein contents of seed. The seed kernels contain 45% oil, and about 35% protein. Total area under production of bottle gourd is about 1512 ha with total production of 16632 million tonnes.
