Length and Rapid Elongation of Pedicels of the Female Flowers of Cucumis anguria L.
Our recent work describing Cucumis zambianus Widrlechner, J.H. Kirkbr., Ghebretinsae & K.R. Reitsma, a new species from Zambia, led us to spend considerable time documenting inflorescence characteristics in this new species and comparing them to other, similar Cucumis taxa (10). Cucumis zambianus and C. anguria share a trait that is rather unusual, pedicels that are […]
Evaluation of Sponge Gourd Hybrids for Yield and Related Traits
Ten F1 hybrids of sponge gourd developed through Line × Tester method were evaluated for yield and related traits. Significant variation in mean performance was noticed for all the characters studied. Different hybrids were found best for different traits. The best performing hybrids for different characters include DSG-6 × ‘Pusa Sneha’ for earliness; DSG-7 × […]
