The values are given as mean ± SD (n = 9; triplicates of individual triplicates of pumpkin). The values followed by different superscripts (a) within the same column are not significantly different (p < 0.05) from each other. Different letter superscripts (A,B) in each row indicate there is significant difference (p < 0.05) in pulp and peels samples.
