Evaluation and Utilization of the Valuable African Watermelon Germplasm
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 11:69 (article 29) 1988 Wang Ming and Zhang Xing-ping Northwestern Agricultural University, Yangling, Shaanxi, China. Abstract Ten African watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. and Nakai] (AW) were first introduced from Botzwana, Africa, to China in 1984. Their morphological, biological and agronomic characters, and disease resistance have been studied for three years. […]
Studies on Watermelon Germplasm Sources Resistant to Fusarium Wilt Disease at the Seedling Stage
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 11:68 (article 28) 1988 Wang Ming and Zhang Xian Department of Horticulture, Northwestern Agricultural University, Yangling, Shaanxi, China. Abstract The seedling inoculation methods (soil inoculation, radical inoculation and the root dip inoculation) were compared to identify and screen for Fusarium wilt resistance (FWE). The results showed that the root dip inoculation […]
