Abstract

                                Of the cultivated gourds, melons and cucumbers, the bitter gourd (Tamil Pavakkai, Telugu - Kakara, Hindi - Karela) is a common vegetable plant grown in almost every kitchen garden in South India. It is reported to be cultivated throughout India, as also in Malaya, China, Tropical Africa and America. People in Europe call it Balsam-Pear, but no information is available to show that the fruits are used by them for edible purposes.
