Potential of parents and hybrids experimental of the yellow melon

Abstract: Melon or muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) is of considerable economic importance in Brazil. Nearly all the cultivars currently grown are hybrids. Heterosis has been used to advantage in the melon plant, and the use of uniform hybrids is one of the reasons for successful cultivation. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the agronomic potential of yellow melon lines and hybrids. An experiment was conducted in randomized blocks with three replications to evaluate 24 hybrids generated by crosses among three eli… Show more

“…Differences of genotypes are associated with variability that exists between materials [11]. Response of additive effects (GCA) and non-additive effects (SCA) is involved in genetic control of trait [12]. Results of general and specific combining ability provide relevant information on parents and progeny to continue advancing in breeding program.…”

“…As cultivares de melão de maior expressão nacional são do tipo Pele de Sapo, Amarelo, Cantaloupe e Gália, com tendência crescente a exploração de híbridos pelo seu potencial produtivo, especialmente quando irrigado (Lima, 2015;Cavalcante Neto et al, 2020). Irrigação esta que é promovida predominantemente pelo sistema de gotejamento, por evitar molhar a parte aérea da planta, permitir maior controle na quimigação e maior eficiência de uso da água.…”
