Abstract:

Cucumis metuliferus E. Mey. ex Naud (African horned cucumber, horned melon) is endemic to Africa and is a relative of cultivated cucumber (C. sativus L.) and melon (C. melo L.). In the present study, genetic variation among the USDA C. metuliferus collection was evaluated with microsatellite [simple sequence repeat (SSR)] markers derived from C. sativus genomic DNA sequences. Of 564 cucumber SSRs tested, 51.8% were able to produce polymerase chain reaction amplicons in C. metuliferus suggesting a high degree of DNA sequence homology between the two species. Forty-two cross-species SSRs were us

Regardless of the several attempts of the early and recent studies to separate the wild species of Cucumis from the cultivated ones, there is still taxonomic confusion brought about by the similarities in morphology of the genus. In a gene bank with so many species and accessions of Cucumis stored, it is appropriate to delineate these numerous accessions to save time and resources as well. This study aims to delinea

Abstract:

Vegetable crops of the genus Cucumis are very popular worldwide and have great market value. However, their fruit quality and yield are hindered by viral diseases. C. metuliferus is considered a wild species with resistance to viral diseases that is lacking in cultivated crops of the Cucumis genus, such as melon. The C. metuliferus line L37 shows extreme resistance against Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV-HA), whereas line L35 is a susceptible line. In this study, reciprocal grafting experiments between L35 and L37 were performed, and the PRSV-HA strain was pre-inoculated in the rootstock leaves. T

Abstract:

Objetivou-se com este trabalho realizar a caracterização química e física das cascas do kino (Cucumis metuliferus) bem como avaliar através da modelagem matemática a cinética de secagem em diferentes temperaturas. As cascas foram caracterizadas in natura quanto ao teor de água, sólidos totais e solúveis, atividade de água, cinzas, pH, acidez total titulável, Ratio e ácido ascórbico. Determinou-se a cinética de secagem nas temperaturas de 60, 70, 80 e 90 °C, ajustando os dados a doze modelos matemáticos utilizando como critérios de ajuste o coeficiente de determinação (R2) e o desvio quadrático

Abstract:

Efforts to produce specialty crops by Missouri farmers have been met with varying success. This success is reduced by the lack of established cultural practices necessary for the economic production of these crops. Ten kiwano plant introductions obtained from the Central Regional Plant Introduction Station in Ames, Iowa, were planted in the greenhouse. Seedling vigor was determined by shoot length, shoot dry weight, and number of leaves produced. Uniform seedlings from each accession were transplanted in the field with within row spacings of 0.9 m and 1.3 m. Seedling vigor varied significantly

Abstract:

In this study, the antimicrobial efficacy of a cloud-point extract (CPE) derived from the peels of horned melon (Cucumis metuliferus) was evaluated. By employing cloud-point extraction, a cutting-edge extraction technique, bioactive phytochemicals were effectively isolated from the peels, yielding a rich concentration of antioxidants and antimicrobial agents. The antifungal activities of the extract, including growth inhibition, minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC), and time-kill kinetics, were tested against phytopathogenic fungal species isolated from fruits, namely Aspergillus sp., Penici

Abstract:

Cucumis debilis W.J.de Wilde & Duyfjes is an annual and monoecious plant. This species is endemic to Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam. However, C. debilis is rarely studied, and no detailed information is available regarding its basic chromosome number, 45S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) status, and divergence among other Cucumis species. In this study, we characterized the morphological characters and determined and investigated the basic chromosome number and chromosomal distribution of 45S rDNA of C. debilis using the fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) technique.

Abstract:

Thirty-eight cultivated accessions of the diverse Cucurbitaceae were electrophoretically surveyed using 13 enzyme systems. Included were representatives from 6 of the 6 Cucurbitaceae tribes, 9 genera, and 17 species. Additionally, several cultivars or groups were included for those species possessing marked morphological diversity such as the 7 groups of Cucumis melo var. melo and 7 of the numerous cultivars representing Cucurbita pepo. Zymograms were scored for the presence or absence of bands measured in mm from the origin. Cluster analysis (complete linkage method) was used to detect affini

Abstract:

The global popularity of horned melon highlights the need of sound crop establishment processes, since uniform and quick seed germination has a substantial influence on crop yield and quality. Using a Completely Randomised Design (CRD) with a factorial structure, the effects of hydro priming durations (0, 8, 16, 24, 32, and 40 h) on seeds of two horned melon landrace (L1&L2) were investigated. Hydro priming had significant (P>0.05) influence on several germination indices (germination percentage, relativized percentage, mean germination rate, germination index, synchronization, duration

Abstract:

The responses of a diverse group of vining cucurbits to inoculation with Squash vein yellowing virus (SqVYV) were determined. For the first time, Cucurbita maxima, Cucumis dipsaceus, and Cucumis metuliferus were observed to develop necrosis and plant death similar to the SqVYV-induced vine decline in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus var. lanatus). The majority of cucurbits inoculated, however, either exhibited no symptoms of infection, or developed relatively mild symptoms such as vein yellowing of upper, noninoculated leaves. All inoculated plants were sectioned and tested for the presence of Sq
