Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 11:37-38 (article 17) 1988 D. Gabillard Institut de Recherches Vilmorin, Ledenon, 30210 Remoulins, France. M. Pitrat Institut National del la Recherche Agronomique, BP 94, 84140 Montfavet, France. As in Cucumis sativus (1) fasciated plants sometimes occur in C. melo. We have observed such a mutation in the line ‘Vilmorin 104’ in […]

Localization of genes v, ms-3, f, lmi and powdery mildew resistance in muskmelon
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 10:51-55 (article 29) 1987 M. Pitrat, C. Ferrière, M. Ricard Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique 84140 Avignon-Montfavet, France Until now 9 independent gene groups have been described in muskmelon. We continue to make systematic studies to improve our knowledge of melon genetics. The names and symbols of the genes used […]
Flava, a Chlorophyll Deficient Mutant in Muskmelon
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 9:67 (article 20) 1986 M. Pitrat, C. Ferriere and M. Ricard INRA, Station d’Amelioration des Plantes Maraicheres, 84140 Montfavet, France A spontaneous yellow mutant appeared in ‘K 2005’, a muskmelon line from China supplied by M. HEDDE (Caillard Seeds Company, Sarrians, France). From the original seed stock, three plants were selfed […]
Attempt at Localization of male sterile-4, cut leaf and virescent Mutants in Muskmelon
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 9:64-67 (article 19) 1986 M. Pitrat, C. Ferriere and M. Ricard INRA, Station d’Amelioration des Plantes Maraicheres, 84140 Montfavet, France We have tried to find some linkages between male sterile-4 (ms-4) supplied by P. LOZANOV (Bulgaria) (2), cut leaf (cl) supplied by I. VELICH (Hungary) (5) or virescent (v) supplied by […]
Genetic Linkages in Muskmelon
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 8:50-54 (Article 19) 1985 Pitrat, M. Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique, 84140 Montfavet, France We have continued the work presented in the 1984 CGC report (5) on the research of genetic linkages in muskmelon. 1. Necrotic spot virus resistance (nsv) This gene was already found independent from genes belonging to […]
Interaction of Zucchini Yellow Mosaic Virus Strains and Muskmelon Lines
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 7:43-44 (article 19) 1984 Lecoq, H. and M. Pitrat I.N.R.A., Centre de Recherches Agronomiques d’Avignon, B.P. 94, 84140 Montfavet, France Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV), a recently described member of the potyvirus group (3), is now commonly found infecting cucurbits in various parts of the world (2). It induces severe symptoms […]
Linkage Studies in Muskmelon
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 7:51-53 (article 23) 1984 Pitrat, M. I.N.R.A., Centre de Recherches Agronomiques d’Avignon, B.P. 94, 84140 Montfavet, France Until now only 4 gene linkages have been described in muskmelon: (1) bush (b) and yellow virescent (yv) – recombination 19.4% (5); (2) virus aphid transmission resistance (Vat) and Flaccida necrosis (Fn) – recombination […]
Two Alleles for Watermelon Mosaic Virus 1 Resistance in Melon
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 6:52-53 (article 27) 1983 M. Pitrat and H. Lecoq I. N. R. A., B. P. 94, 84140 Montfavet-Avignon, France Two sources of resistance to Watermelon Mosaic Virus 1 (WMV-1) have been used independently. In the U. S., Webb and Bohn (10) found some resistant (symptomless) plants in PI 180280 from India. […]
Vat and Fn, Two Linked Genes in Muskmelon
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 5:29-30 (article 15) 1982 M. Pitrat1, H. Lecoq2 and G. Risser1 I.N.R.A., B.P. 94, 84140 Montfavet-Avignon, France Many viruses affecting melon are non-persistently aphid transmitted. Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) is probably the most widespread, but Watermelon mosaic 1 and 2 (WMV-1 and WMV-2), and in France a third potyvirus tentatively named […]
Response of Some Cucurbita and Cucumis Accessions to Three Meloidogyne Species
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 4:53-55 (article 28) 1981 A. Dalmasso, R. Dumas de Vaulx and M. Pitrat Station de Recherches sur les Nematodes, INRA, 06602 Antibes Cedex, France (first author); Station d’Amelioration des Plantes Maraicheres, INRA, B.P. 94, 84140 Montfavet-Avignon, France (second and third authors) We have developed an interspecific hybridization program to introduce into […]
