Introduction
Bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria) belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family. It is also known as calabash or white flowered gourd and locally kado Etthadul Ummah [1]. There are 118 general and 825 species Harika [2]. Lagenaria consists of five other wild species, namely LaGuardia brevifilora, Lagenaria rufa, Lagenaria sphaerica, LagenariaAbyssinia, and Lagenariaguineensis. In which Lagenariasiceraria spp mostly cultivated. Within the species of bottle gourd have been recognized. Lagenaria siceraria ssp. siceraria and Lagenaria siceraria ssp asiatica. Cultivation of the crop started from around 9-10,000 BP (Before present) in the America (new world), 6-10, 000BP in East Asia and 4-5000BP in Africa Jamal Uddin [3]. Bottle gourd is said to be one of the first species domesticated by human. Bottle gourd is an annual herbaceous plant with a prostrate type growth habit Etthadul Ummah [1]. The leaves are alternate and variable, and tendrils are almost present flowers of L.siceraria are monoecious in nature, male and female flowers are found on different plant axis of the same plant Etthadul Ummah [1]. So cross pollination is highly favorable. Dioecious and andromonoecious sex from Bering hermaphrodite flowers also exist in wild or non-cultivated types. Sex ratio of bottle gourd is very high Harika [2]. The proportions of male and female flowers have been shown to affect yield significantly Jamal Uddin [3]. Environmental condition (precipitation, temperature, and light intensity) and various growth regulators (Auxin , ethylene, gibberellic acid etc.) can be used to alter this ratio. Bottle gourd fruit vary widely in shape and size, and this is within or among cultivars, (Lagenaria siceraria) exhibits the widest variations in fruit shape; these are either long, cylindrical, necked, oblong flat or round, conical pyriform to club shaped, while skin texture varies from warted to smooth Etthadul Ummah [1].
The desire of any farmer is to see the germination and growth of all seeds planted in a field. This way the farmer is assured to obtain reasonable yield if all growing conditions are optimal Etthadul Ummah [1]. The vegetables are short duration crops, which can be grown even in small spaces Harika [2]. Improving vegetable productivity will put the prices of vegetables within the reach of urban and rural poor. In Pakistan, gourds are produced in large quantities in Pakistan and are exported abroad Jamal Uddin [3]. In view of the above facts, figure and importance of bottle gourd, an experiment was designed to evaluate the performance of bottle gourd varieties in the agro-climate condition of Peshawar valley, with the following objectives.
Objective
I. To find the best quality variety of bottle gourd.
II. To examine the high yielding bottle gourd.
Results and Discussion
The research study "Evaluation of bottle gourd variety in Agro climate condition of Peshawar valley" was carried out at Agriculture Research Institute Tarnab; Peshawar during 2016. Mean data recorded on the various parameters is presented in Table. Its analysis of variance is given ANOVA (Tables 1a-5a)
the result of each parameter is present below:
Main Stem Length
Data recording main stem length is presented in (Table 1) the analysis of variance is placed in (Table 1-a), The mean for plant length showed that maximum plant length (15.1m) was recorded Globe variety followed by Mahraya variety (9.82m) while minimum plant length of NS550F1 variety (9.03m) was recorded. It is revealed from (Table 1) and ANOVA (Table 1a) Globe variety gained significant highest stem length, whereas, Mahraya and NS550F1 varieties had lesser stem growth (Length) than Globe. This trend may be due to the variation in the genetic makeup of the genotype. Similar findings were reported by Harika [2].
Fruit length (m)
Data regarding fruit length is presented in (Table 2) the analysis of variance is placed in (Table 2-a) while comparison of means for fruit length showed that maximum fruit (0.49m) was recorded for Ns550f1 variety on followed by variety mahraya (0.43m) while minimum fruit length of Globe variety (0.38m) was recorded. It is revealed from (Table-2) and ANOVA (Table 2-a) NS550f1 variety gained significant highest fruit length whereas; Mahraya and Globe varieties had lesser fruit length than Ns55of1. This trend may be due to the variation in the genetic makeup of the genotype. Similar findings were reported by Yetisir [4].
Total soluble solid (TSS)
Data regarding total soluble solid is presented in (Table 3) the analysis of variance is placed in (Table 3-a). A while comparison of means for total soluble sold showed that maximum total soluble sold (1.49) was recorded NS 550 F1 variety for followed by variety Mahraya (1.13) while minimum total soluble sold in Globe variety (0.96) was recorded. It is revealed from (Table-3) and ANOVA (Table 3-a) that NS550f1 variety gained significant TSS, whereas, Mahraya and Globe varieties had lesser than NS550f1. This trend may be due to the variation in the genetic makeup of the genotype. Similar findings were reported by Huang [5].
pH
Data regarding pH is presented in (Table 4) the analysis of variance is placed in (Table 4-a) while comparison of means for pHS owed that maximum pH (6.05) was recorded forNS550f1 variety for followed by variety Globe (5.79) while minimum pH of Mahraya variety (5.33) was recorded. It is revealed from (Table-4) and ANOVA (Table 4-a) that NS550f1 variety gained significant highest ph, whereas, Globe and Mahraya varieties had lesser pH than NS550f1. This trend may be due to the variation in the genetic makeup of the genotype. Similar findings were reported by Anchal Sharma, and S K Sengupta [6].
Acidity
Data regarding plant is presented in (Table 5) the analysis of variance is placed in (Table 5-a) while comparison of means for acidity showed that maximum acidity (10.03) was recorded for GLOBE variety for followed by variety NS 550 F1 (9.39) while minimum acidity, Mahraya (8.5) was recorded Prasad A [7]. It is revealed from (Table 5) and ANOVA (Table 5-a) that Globe variety gained significant highest acidity whereas; NS550F1 and Globe varieties had lesser acidity than Globe. This trend may be due to the variation in the genetic makeup of the genotype. Similar findings were reported by [8-15].
Conclusion
On the basis of the above recorded data the following conclusion can be drawn.
NS550f1is suitable variety of bottle guard because it shows maximum plant height, fruit length, total soluble solid (TSS), pH, Acidity.
Recomemdation
It is recommended that NS550f1was a good bottle guard propagated variety under the agro-climatic condition of Peshawar valley.
When:
I. The plantation should be at their proper time and season.
II. The worker should be trained with new techniques in vegetable gardening.

Hello World! I'm excited to share the news of the cabaça. I'm promoting an #ancestral #technology used to carry #water.
.
.
Homo sapiens has walked on earth for a while now and carrying water is a critical activity for its survival. Once I was in India witnessing #plastic #pollution and I wondered if there was an #organic #waterbottle. It turns out there was and there still is an #ecological technology and it's this bottle that in #brazil is known as CA-BA-ÇA. In #México, it is known as #guaje.
.
.in some parts of the world, it is known as #african #calabash because it indeed came from #Africa, the birthplace of civilization. It is known in the scientific world by the name #lagenariasiceraria.
.
.
it is a #vine which produces a fruit that can be turned into a vessel for carrying liquids. I've been using it, making my own and sharing it with the world for almost two years now I've learned a lot from it.
.
.
First, the #guaje cabaça breathes. it has micropores through which hot vapors escape slowly, allowing the interior liquid to be cooled, much like how an air conditioning works.
.
.
second, the cabaça has an intestine, a gut if you will. You may ferment drinks with it and this will develop as you learn about probiotic fermentation.
.
.Finally, the cabaça is strong, resisting the test of time thanks to its versatility in making food carrying utensils. Its seeds have traveled all around the world!
