“…Sex expression of cucumber has been investigated primarily in monoecious and gynoecious phenotypes (1,3,4,10,11,13,17,18,19). Few experiments with androecious phenotypes have been reported (2,9,20). In a study (4) on the effect of daylength on sex expression, 25 monoecious cucumber cultivars were classified according to their response to daylength, as daylength insensitive, short day sensitive, and long day sensi tive.…”
