The catalogue describes 151 accessions of Cucurbita maxima Duch., Cucurbita moschata Duch. ex. Poir., and Cucurbita pepo L. in the context of their most important biochemical indicators assessed on the cultivation site at Pushkin and Pavlovsk Laboratories of VIR (St. Petersburg). The aim of this catalogue is to assist plant breeders and researchers interested in studying the genetic diversity of Cucurbita spp. in their search for source material that could be used for the development of new pumpkin cultivars with higher content of valuable biochemical compounds in order to expand the assortment of food products in functional, medicinal and prophylactic diets.
