Abstract
The present study was carried out at the Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University, Chidambaram during Jan-Mar 2020. The field was laid out in randomized block design (RBD) with three replications. Cluster analysis grouped thirty five genotypes of bottle gourd into five clusters. Cluster III had highest number of genotypes (19) followed by cluster I (10), cluster IV (3), cluster II (2) and cluster V (1). The inter cluster distance highest was recorded between cluster IV and V (14.407) followed by cluster I and II (9.044). Yield per vine, Number of fruits per vine, Fruit length and Fruit width contributed highest towards total genetic divergence.
