Facilitation of Self-pollination in Gynoecious Cucumber with Silver Nitrate Treatment of Cuttings
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 7:6-7 (article 2) 1984 Soo-Nyeon Kwack and Kunimitsu Fujieda University Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, Kyushu University, Kasuyamachi, Fukuoka, Japan Obtaining self-pollinated seeds from gynoecious cucumber plants selected from segregating populations presents a serious problem for the plant breeder. In this study, we have investigated the application of gibberellic acid (GA) and […]
