Gene lists of melon have been published previously, the last one in 2002 (18, 19, 106, 109, 111, 112, 120). They included different types of genes: disease and pest resistance genes, isozymes, leaf, stem, flower, fruit and seed characters… The 2007 list includes a total number of 174 loci, QTLs for 15 disease resistance or fruit related traits, and one cytoplasmic mutant (cyt-Yt) (Table 1).
