• Cucumis melo, also known as melon, is a species of Cucumis that has been developed into many cultivated varieties. (wikipedia.org)
  • Currently, no Cucumis melo (melon) cultivars have significant levels of resistance. (bvsalud.org)
  • N = 169) generated from a cross between the resistant melon breeding line MR-1 and susceptible cultivar Ananas Yok'neam were phenotyped for CDM resistance in both greenhouse and growth chamber studies. (bvsalud.org)
  • Breeding of Persian melon: Purpose to increase volatile compounds in melon (Cucumis melo) intergroup F1 cross population. (mpg.de)
  • Fortunately, there are many registered insecticide alternatives available that can be applied via sprinkler chemigation (i.e., pyrethroids) or foliar sprays (i.e., pyrethroids, methomyl, neonicotinoids) that can cost-effectively reduce their abundance and damage to susceptible produce and melon seedlings. (arizona.edu)
  • Melons prefer warm, well-fertilized soil with good drainage that is rich in nutrients, but are vulnerable to downy mildew and anthracnose. (wikipedia.org)
  • Disease risk is reduced by crop rotation with non-cucurbit crops, avoiding crops susceptible to similar diseases as melons. (wikipedia.org)
  • With resistance to powdery mildew and watermelon mosaic virus, the Lilly Crenshaw makes an excellent choice for those with issues growing melons and also zones that have shorter growing seasons. (hosstools.com)
  • Melons can be susceptible to plant diseases if excess leaf moisture is present. (hosstools.com)
  • Just like melons ( Cucumis melo & Citrullus lanatus ), courgettes are susceptible to squash diseases − infections can spread rapidly within related species and endanger the whole crop. (plantura.garden)
  • Cross pollination has resulted in some varieties developing resistance to powdery mildew. (wikipedia.org)
  • KEY MESSAGE: This is the first identification of QTLs underlying resistance to Pseudoperonospora cubensis in Cucumis melo using a genetically characterized isolate. (bvsalud.org)
  • Additionally, little is understood about the genetic basis of resistance in C. melo. (bvsalud.org)
  • qPcub-10.1 co-located with an MLO-like protein coding gene, which has been shown to confer resistance to powdery mildew and Phytophthora in other plants. (bvsalud.org)
  • Pseudoperonospora cubensis, causal organism of cucurbit downy mildew (CDM), is one of the largest threats to cucurbit production in the eastern USA. (bvsalud.org)
  • Some authors treat C. melo as having two subspecies, C. melo agrestis and C. melo melo. (wikipedia.org)
  • RESULTS: Two high-density genetic maps were constructed by whole-genome resequencing with two F2 segregating populations (WAP and MAP) derived from two crosses (cultivated agrestis × wild agrestis and cultivated melo × cultivated agrestis). (bvsalud.org)
  • Powdery mildew and rust fungi are major agricultural problems affecting many economically important crops and causing significant yield losses. (encyclopedia.pub)
  • A simple method to predict time from anthesis of perfect flowers to fruit maturity (full slip) and yield is presented here for muskmelon ( Cucumis melo L.) grown in a northern climate. (ashs.org)
  • Technically, "true" cantaloupes ( Cucumis melo 'cantaloupensis') are rough, warty fruit, primarily grown in Europe. (arizona.edu)
  • Growth of `Earligold' muskmelon ( Cucumis melo L.), expressed as plant dry weight from transplanting to anthesis, could be predicted using a multiple linear regression based on air and soil temperatures for 11 mulch and rowcover combinations. (ashs.org)
  • Therefore, we analyzed and compared the transcriptomic responses of resistant and susceptible genotypes to seven biotic stresses (Cladosporium fulvum, Phytophthora infestans, Pseudomonas syringae, Ralstonia solanacearum, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and Tuta absoluta) and five abiotic stresses (drought, salinity, low temperatures, and oxidative stress) to identify genes involved in response to multiple stressors. (bvsalud.org)
  • In this study, the genomic diversity of two tomato varieties, one tolerant and the other susceptible to T. absoluta infestation was explored, allowing us to identify chromosome regions with highly dissimilar pattern. (bvsalud.org)
  • Some authors treat C. melo as having two subspecies, C. melo agrestis and C. melo melo. (wikipedia.org)
