“…The growth findings were comparable with those of Akhoundnejad and Sevgin (2019), who detected a distribution of main stem lengths (MSL) ranging from 40.51 to 68.42 cm across melon genotypes. Our main stem diameter (MSD) finding was larger than that of Yusuf et al (2020), who reported a stem diameter range of 0.84 to 0.92 cm among three melon genotypes, Akhoundnejad and Sevgin (2019), who reported a range of 0.6 to 1 cm MSD, and Saputro et al (2020), who reported an MSD of 0.8 cm. Our study's leaf length (LL) and leaf width (LW) were lower than those reported by Yusuf et al (2020), which varied from 12 to 16 cm and 18 to 22 cm, respectively, and Zhang et al (2012), who observed an average of 13.12 and 15.06 cm for LL and LW, respectively, across nine melon genotypes.…”

The number of lateral stems (NLS) results agreed with those of Saputro et al (2020), who measured four lateral branches per plant, but were lower than those of Zhang et al (2012). These differences could be related to genetic differences as well as climate factors.…”

“…To solve this problem, species diversity analysis is essential. Melon genetic diversity has been studied using a variety of morphological, phenological, physiological, sensory, and physicochemical analyses (Dantas et al 2015;Maleki et al 2018;Saputro et al 2020;Singh et al 2020;Pandey et al 2021). The most important criterion for first assessments of genetic diversity for melon genotype categorization and identification is morphological investigation.…”

The genetic diversity of melon genotypes obtained from northern Iraq was assessed in 2021 at the University of Sulaimani's Directorate of Garden in Qlyasan using a Randomized Complete Block Design with three blocks, using growth and fruit morpho-physicochemical characteristics. The 57 genotypes were characterized morphologically and physiochemically, and there were high significant differences between them. The values of main stem length, lateral stem length, main stem diameter, and lateral stem diameter were ranged from 20.49 to 85.84 cm, 29.45 to 92.52 cm, 0.85 to 1.77 cm, and 0.42 to 0.74 cm, respectively. The fruit weight produced by G11 achieved the highest value (1860.72 g). Antioxidant activity was increased in genotypes with higher levels of polyphenols, titratable acidity, and total soluble solids. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed four distinct groups of genotypes based on studied traits. PCA plot revealed that fruit thickness, fruit length, fruit width, placenta weight, fruit weight, seed length, seed width, total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, antioxidant activity, pH, and titratable acid were significant determinants of genetic diversity in the melon genotypes. Based on the majority of the fruit morpho-physicochemical traits, genotype G11 was regarded as the best performer. The results of this study suggested a significant degree of heterogeneity in Iraqi melon germplasm, which must be conserved and incorporated into future development projects.

“…Not only this study, a new subspecies through phylogenetic analysis has been proposed by many researchers in angiosperm group (Zeng et al 2014) such as in Dasyphyllum (Ferreira et al 2019). On the basis of detailed quantitative and qualitative morpho-agronomic characters (141 characters), these two plants are different (Saputro et al 2020).…”

Cucurbitaceae is one of the largest family in Angiosperm in which the most member of this family is important fruit crops in Indonesia such as Cucumber, Melon, Watermelon, and Apple Cucumber. In particular, Apple Cucumber, currently attracts attention to many researchers due to its phylogeneticand taxonomic problem. In term of its appearance, the fruit looks like an apple but the taste is melon. The purpose of this study was to elucidatephylogenetic relationship between Apple Cucumber and other species of Cucurbitaceae based on variation of DNA sequences derived from internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region. As many as six individuals of Apple Cucumber collected from Karawang, Jember, and Aceh were examined. The ITS sequences of some species of family Cucurbitaceae were retrieved from GenBank, and put them in the analysis. Phylogenetic analysis based on parsimony method with using Begoniaas outgroup reveals that Apple Cucumber are nested in the same clade as Melon (Cucumis melo) with high bootstrap value (100%), suggesting that Apple Cucumber is under the same species as Melon. However, on the basis of morphological characters of fruit, apple cucumber is different with that of Melon. This considerably first phylogenetics treatment provides fundamental knowledge for establishing a subspecies of Melon.

“…To address this issue, diversity is a primary priority in species. Different morphological, phenological, and physiological approaches (Pandey et al 2021;Saputro et al 2020;Singh et al 2020) have been used to assess genetic variation in melon. Morphological analyses are the most essential criteria in the initial assessment of genetic variation for melon genotype and cultivar categorization and identi cation.…”

Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is an ancient and indigenous crop that grows in Iraq's Kurdistan region, and research into its genetic diversity is needed to improve this important culinary plant while also promoting a healthy diet. This study assessed the genetic diversity of 57 melon accessions using three types of molecular markers, namely universal rice primer (URP), sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP), and conserved DNA derived polymorphism (CDDP) markers. The URAP + IRAP, SRAP, and CDDP primers yielded 143, 125, and 131 polymorphic alleles, respectively. The average polymorphic information content (PIC) was 0.29, 0.26, and 0.32 for URAP + IRAP, SRAP, and CDDP, respectively. Based on the average values of polymorphic bands per primer and PIC of three types of markers, the order of the power of discrimination of melon accession was as follows: URP + IRAP > CDDP > SRAP. The URP-4R, Me1-Em2, and MYB-1 primers had the highest Shannon information index values. Based on the Ward method-based cluster and STRUCTURE analysis, URAP + IRAP and SRAP markers grouped 57 accessions into two primary clusters with various sub-clusters, whereas CDDP markers divided 57 accessions into three groups. The genetic distances between accessions ranged from 0.32 to 0.84 for URP + IRAP, 0.20 to 0.78 for SRAP, and 0.25 to 0.73 for CDDP. The analysis of molecular variance revealed an increase in genetic variation within groups, as well as significant gene exchange between populations. In SRAP analysis, substantial genetic distinctiveness was identified among populations. However, in CDDP analysis, high Shannon's information index and predicted heterozygosity were observed among populations. The outcomes of this study indicated a high level of variability in Iraqi melon germplasm, which must be preserved and included in improvement programs for this ancient crop.
