These are <a href="/wiki/Steroid" title="Steroid">steroids</a> which defend the plants from predators, and have a bitter taste to humans. Cultivated cucurbitaceae are bred for low levels of the toxin and are safe to eat. However, ornamental pumpkins can have high levels of cucurbitacins, and such ornamental plants can cross-fertilize edible cucurbitaceae—any such cross-fertilized seeds used by the gardener for growing food in the following season can therefore potentially produce bitter and toxic fruit. Dry weather or irregular watering can also favor the production of the toxin, which is not destroyed by cooking.

One good way to control overabundance is to harvest the <a href="/wiki/Zucchini_flower" class="mw-redirect" title="Zucchini flower">flowers</a>, which are an expensive delicacy in markets because of the difficulty in storing and transporting them.
