Abstract

Sponge gourd though not a major vegetable crop is grown extensively in some parts of India. Serious attention towards genetic improvements are lacking in this crop, even though there is a large genetic variation exits in the country. A knowledge of floral biology is essential for any improvement programme through hybridization. Singh(1957)has made a detailed study on the floral biology in Luffa sps. As the prevailing changes in climatic conditions and availability of different sex forms in Sponge gourd makes it necessary to study the floral biology of this crop in present context.
