In the top melon-producing nations in world, numerous scientific research are being carried out to develop types that suited for growing melons at various times, particularly isolated and protected places, advance cultivation techniques. The technology grow greenhouses throughout winter varieties appropriate growth have been developed a number of nations, ultra-fast exportable melon now cultiva...

Flowers with only one sexual function typically result from the developmental suppression of the other. A recent study that shows how this is achieved has important implications for models of the evolution of separate sexes in plants.

Cantaloupe rind washing achieved a partial surface pasteurization in a recirculating heated thermal-shower system was shown to achieve targeted bacterial reductions, relative to incoming populations on fruit, in model and commercial-scale systems. Over the two year project, several cycles of on-site testing and commercial system design and management were supported by the data developed at the ...

screening methods that are effective in the early stage of growth will potentially provide the largest quantity of breeding material. although various screening methods under greenhouse have been proposed, potential effective approaches must be described a good correlation with results under field conditions. this study was aimed to assess the correlations between traits obtained from four salt...
