- Pointed gourd is a popular vegetable in countries like India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan, with India alone producing over 800,000 metric tons annually across 33,000 hectares.
- In 2018, a significant disease outbreak resulted in 15-20% crop loss in West Bengal, showing anthracnose-like symptoms on fruits and leaves, with a disease incidence rate of 30-40%.
- Fungal analysis revealed the presence of Colletotrichum orbiculare, characterized by specific morphological traits, and led to further investigations involving genomic DNA extraction for pathogen identification.

Snake gourd is a seasonal vegetable with a high water content and medicinal value, but the short harvest period limits the large-scale application of snake gourd. Therefore, the effects of freeze-thaw pretreatment (FT) combined with hot air (HD) on the drying characteristics, active ingredients and bioactivities of snake gourd were investigated. The results showed that FT pretreatment reduced browning and shortened the drying time by 44%; the Page model was the best fit for describing the drying process.
