“…Melon production in Brazil is around 570.000 ton, and the It is grown mainly in tropical countries, due to the climate characteristics (temperature, relative humidity and luminosity) which contribute positively M elon (Cucumis melo) is an oleraceae of great acceptance in the world market of fresh fruits, including Brazil (Vargas et al, 2008). main commercial planting area is in the Northeastern semiarid, in the States of Rio Grande do Norte and Ceará (FAO, 2013).…”

et al. 2017

The authors aimed to evaluate the resistance to gummy stem blight and the agronomic traits of the melon crop in the Southern Region of the State of Tocantins, Brazil, in two growing seasons, submitted or not to treatment with fungicides. Two experiments were carried out: dry season (experiment I), and rainy season (experiment II), respectively, comprising the periods from July to October 2013 and from March to May 2014. Six melon cultivars were used in each season. In the dry season: Eldorado 300, Hibrix, Dourado Amarelo, Louro, Gaúcho Redondo and Canarian; and in the rainy season: Eldorado 300, Hibrix, HF-4439, Louro, Gaúcho Redondo and Canarian. Treatments consisted of each cultivar and split plot with (WA) or without fungicides application (NA). All cultivars were susceptible to disease, considering that Gaúcho Redondo was the least susceptible in the dry season. The fungicide application decreased disease severity in the dry season, however the productivity of the crop in treatments without fungicide application were not compromised, due to the late onset of the disease, and ranged from 19.2 t/ha for Eldorado 300 up to 41.9 t/ha for Canarian. The total soluble solids showed average values of 12°Brix, except for cultivar Gaúcho Redondo, which showed Brix value lower than commercial standards. During the rainy season, fungicide application did not protect the plants, which did not complete the cycle, resulting in the absence of marketable fruit production. The climatic characteristics observed in the rainy season, with high humidity, leaf wetness and high temperatures are favorable for the development of gummy stem blight in melon plants. Thus, in Tocantins, the dry season is characterized as the best time of year for cultivation, between April and September.

“…O teor de sólidos solúveis totais pode ser influenciado por fatores genéticos, ambientais, irrigação e nutrição das plantas. Dessa forma, o conteúdo de sólidos solúveis totais, o pH e acidez total titulável (ATT), em frutos de melão, têm sido avaliados para analisar a influência desses fatores sobre estes atributos (FERNANDES et al, 2003;MIGUEL et al, 2008;MIRANDA et al, 2005;NEGREIROS et al, 2005;VARGAS et al, 2008).…”

, Telde Natel Custódio RESUMOO trabalho foi desenvolvido em casa-de-vegetação do Departamento de Engenharia da Universidade Federal de Lavras, Lavras/MG, com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito de diferentes lâminas de irrigação na qualidade dos frutos de melão amarelo 'Vereda' (Cucumis melo L.). A cultura foi irrigada por gotejamento com uma freqüência de aplicação de dois dias. O controle da irrigação foi realizado pela evaporação do tanque Classe A reduzido (ECAr). Foi utilizado o delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com quatro tratamentos (lâminas) e seis repetições. As lâminas aplicadas foram equivalentes a 0,5*ECAr, 0,75*ECAr, 1,0*ECAr e 1,25*ECAr. As características avaliadas foram o teor de sólidos solúveis (SST), acidez total titulável (ATT), pH, espessura de polpa e da casca e diâmetro da cavidade interna em seis frutos de cada tratamento. A espessura da polpa, a acidez total titulável e o teor de sólidos solúveis reduziram com o aumento das lâminas de irrigação. Termos para indexação:Cucumis melo, manejo de irrigação, sólidos solúveis totais, espessura da polpa, ambiente protegido. ABSTRACTThis study was developed inside a greenhouse at the Engineering Departament of Universidade Federal de Lavras, Lavras/ MG, aiming to evaluate the effect of different irrigation depths on fruit quality of greenhouse cultivated "Vereda" yellow melon (Cucumis melo L.). The crop was drip irrigated, in a two-day interval, with four different depths. Irrigation depths were computed using four different fractions of the evaporation depth observed on a reduced class A pan evaporimeter (ECAr): 0.5*ECAr, 0.75*ECAr, 1.0*ECAr, and 1.25*ECAr. A completely randomized design, with four treatments and six replications, was used. Evaluated parameters were: total soluble solid content (SSC), total titrable acidity (TTA), pH, pulp thickness, rind thickness, and cavity diameter from six fruits from each treatment of irrigation. Reduced values of total soluble solid content, total titrable acidity, and pulp tickness were observed with increased irrigation depths.

“…El melón es considerado un fruto con poco contenido calórico, bajo en grasas y sodio; no contiene colesterol; y es una buena fuente de potasio, vitamina C (ácido ascórbico) y betacaroteno (provitamina A) (Lester, 1997;Vargas et al, 2008) Además, el melón contiene otros fitoquímicos que favorecen un amplio conjunto de beneficios para la salud; tres de esos compuestos son la betacucurbitacina, el litio y el zinc, los cuales parecen jugar un papel en la prevención del cáncer; en el combate de enfermedades como la depresión, la caspa y las úlceras; y en la estimulación del sistema inmunológico (Lester, 1997). En frutos de melón, se presenta mucha variación en el contenido de antioxidantes, tales como el ácido ascórbico y los fenoles, y esta característica depende, principalmente, del genotipo.…”

Resumen. En esta investigación, se evaluaron siete tipos de melón (Cucumis melo L.): el amarillo, el cantaloupe, el charentais, el galia, el harper, el honey dew y el japonés, producidos bajo invernadero en condiciones hidropónicas en Alajuela, Costa Rica, para determinar su rendimiento y calidad, en los niveles cualitativo (una variable) y cuantitativo (seis variables). Todos los genotipos de los melones tipo amarillo, honey dew y japonés presentaron plantas andromonoicas, mientras que, en los demás tipos, se presentaron genotipos monoicos y andromonoicos. Los datos muestran una amplia variabilidad entre los tipos de melón en cuanto a número de frutos por planta (1,26); peso promedio del fruto (443,29-837,03 g); rendimiento por planta (685,08-1882,13 g); rendimiento por área (17,79-48,89 ton/ha); firmeza de la pulpa del fruto (14,91-20,40 N); y porcentaje de sólidos solubles totales (12,33 °Bx). El mayor número de frutos por planta se obtuvo en los tipos de melón amarillo (3,26) y japonés (2,79); mientras que el menor número, con cantaloupe (1,48) y galia (1,18). Los frutos con mayor peso promedio se consiguieron con los tipos honey dew, cantaloupe y japonés. No se presentaron diferencias significativas entre tratamientos para la firmeza de la pulpa del fruto. El mayor porcentaje de sólidos solubles totales se obtuvo con los melones tipo honey dew, amarillo, harper y japonés. El mayor rendimiento por área se logró con los melones tipo japonés y honey dew (48,89 y 47,51 ton/ha, respectivamente), por lo que se consideran los más recomendables bajo las condiciones en que se desarrolló el ensayo. Palabras clave. Cucumis melo, calidad, rendimiento, °Brix, peso del frutoAbstract. The Seven melon (Cucumis melo L.) types (Yellow Honey Dew, Cantaloupe, Charentais, Galia, Harper, Honey Dew, and Japanese) grown in greenhouse and hydroponic conditions in Alajuela, Costa Rica, were evaluated to compare their yield and quality both in qualitative (one variable) and quantitative (six variables) terms. All genotypes of Yellow Honey Dew, Honey Dew and Japanese melon showed andromonoecious plants, while the other melon types included both monoecious and andromonoecious genotypes. Data show a wide variability between melon types with respect to number of fruits per plant (1.18 -3.26), mean fruit weight (443.29 -837.03 g), yield per plant (685.08 -1882.13 g), yield per area (17.79 -48.89 ton/ha), fruit flesh firmness (14.91 -20.40 N) and percentage of total soluble solids (12.48 -15.33 °Brix). The highest number of fruits per plant resulted from Yellow Honey Dew (3.26) and Japanese (2.79) melon types, while the lowest results were obtained with Cantaloupe (1.48) and Galia (1.18). Fruits with the highest mean fruit weight resulted from Honey Dew, Cantaloupe and Japanese melon types. There were no significant differences between treatments with respect to fruit flesh firmness. The highest percentage of total soluble solids resulted from Honey Dew, Yellow Honey Dew, Harper and Japanese melon types. The highest yield per area was obt...
