Research identifies bitter gourd genotypes with varying resistance levels against downy mildew, suggesting potential for breeding programs.

Maximum percentage disease index observed was 86.77% in Kashi Mayuri, showing high susceptibility.
The genotype Green Long displayed the lowest percentage disease index at 23.98%, indicating moderate resistance.
This assessment involved 75 diverse bitter gourd genotypes conducted during the 2022–23 season.
Identified genotypes hold promise for breeding programs aimed at developing downy mildew-resistant varieties.

Kishorkumar et al. (2025) studied this question.
