Muskmelon quality characteristics—their variability and interrelationships

Variability and interrelationships of grain quantity and quality characteristics in soybean

Grain yield is the most important quantitative character in breeding of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill), depending on both the genotypic potential and environmental conditions of soybean growing. Essentially, all of the genetic gains in soybean yield have been achieved by traditional breeding methods, involving hybridisation and phenotypic selection (CORYELL et al., 1999). Grain yield is a c...

Genetic variability and interrelationships of phenological, physicochemical and cooking quality traits in chickpea

Evaluating Multipollutant Exposure and Urban Air Quality: Pollutant Interrelationships, Neighborhood Variability, and Nitrogen Dioxide as a Proxy Pollutant

BACKGROUND Although urban air pollution is a complex mix containing multiple constituents, studies of the health effects of long-term exposure often focus on a single pollutant as a proxy for the entire mixture. A better understanding of the component pollutant concentrations and interrelationships would be useful in epidemiological studies that exploit spatial differences in exposure by clarif...

genetic variability and interrelationships among agronomic traits in chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) genotypes

to determine the association between genetic parameters and traits in chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) genotypes, a field experiment was conducted with 17 chickpea genotypes using a randomized complete block design with four replications at the ilam agricultural and natural resources research center in the 2004 growing season. genetic parameters including genetic, environmental and phenotypic vari...

An integrated approach for flavour quality evaluation in muskmelon (Cucumis melo L. reticulatus group) during ripening.

Numerous and diverse physiological changes occur during fruit ripening and maturity at harvest is one of the key factors influencing the flavour quality of fruits. The effect of ripening on chemical composition, physical parameters and sensory perception of three muskmelon (Cucumis melo L. reticulatus group) cultivars was evaluated. Significant correlations emerging from this extensive data set...
