Cotyledons of several collections of each taxon of Cucumis africanus Lindley f., C. anguria L. var. anguria, C. anguria var. longipes Meeuse, C. dipsaceus Ehrenb. ex Spach, C. metuliferus E. Mey ex Schrad., C. myriocarpus Naud., C. zeyheri Sond. (2x, 4x), and C. melo L. were surveyed using horizontal starch gel electrophoresis to characterize interspecific and intra-specific variation and to furnish preliminary phylogenetic information with regard to the cross-compatible group of wild African Cucumis species. Eight enzyme systems were studied: shikimate dehydrogenase, triose-phosphate isomeras

Abstract:
Wild Cucumis species have been divided into Australian/Asian and African groups using morphological and phylogenetic characteristics, and new species have been described recently. No molecular cytogenetic information is available for most of these species. The crossability between 5 southern African Cucumis species (C. africanus, C. anguria, C. myriocarpus, C. zeyheri, and C. heptadactylus) has been reported; however, the evolutionary relationship among them is still unclear. Here, a molecular cytogenetic analysis using FISH with 5S and 45S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) was used to investigate these Cu

Total phenolic, flavonoid, and proanthocyanidin contents were evaluated using spectrophotometric methods. The free radical scavenging activity of the acetone, methanol, and aqueous extracts of the fruit, leaf, and root were evaluated against DPPH+, ABTS+, and phosphomolybdenum. Alkaloid and saponin contents were also determined. Results. The acetone extract of the fruit revealed the highest polyphenol content w

Abstract:
The thermostable cucurbitacin A and B from mature fruit of wild cucumber (Cucumis myriocarpus) and wild watermelon (Cucumis africanus), respectively, are used in product development for various industries. Mature fruit from wild cucumber and wild watermelon suffer from high incidents of postharvest decays. Drying fruit at the recommended temperatures of 30 to 40 °C for medicinal plants resulted in molds developing on the material, with optimum temperature to prevent decays being at 52 °C. The influence of 52 °C and higher temperatures on active ingredients in the two fruit had not been documen

Este artigo apresenta uma pesquisa sobre os Cucumbis Carnavalescos. Esses grupos alcançaram a sua maior notoriedade na segunda metade da década de 1880, aparecendo cada vez mais nos jornais e conquistando seu espaço nas ruas durante os dias de carnaval. Eles foram reconhecidos, por jornalistas e outros observadores contemporâneos, como "africanos" - "danças africanas", "instrumentos africanos" e "trajes africanos" - desfilando pelas ruas da cidade.
