Prediction of genetic and selection parameters in pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata Duch.) progenies for morphoagronomic characteristics and pulp quality

Abstract: The estimation of genetic parameters allows for the selection of superior individuals for important traits in plant breeding. The objectives of the present study were to estimate and predict the gains in genetic parameters, as well as to select superior individuals for morphoagronomic and pulp quality characteristics in C. moschata. Ten progenies derived from accessions collected in the northeast of Brazil were evaluated for 17 morphoagronomic characteristics and chemical quality of the pulp, including total c… Show more

“…The evaluation and development of productive pumpkin genotypes with high commercial quality and high β-carotene levels is understood as an effective strategy to prevent VAD. In Brazil, the Embrapa pumpkin breeding program is based on the variability in germplasm collected from the Northeast Brazilian region (Borges et al, 2019). Therefore, using this germplasm promote good chances of gains in the selection for genotypes with high commercial value and total carotenoid content and particularly high β-carotene levels.…”

“…Para o processo de seleção de genótipos superiores em abóboras levam-se em consideração diversas características de interesse do mercado, tais como: precocidade do ciclo, hábito de crescimento, produtividade, resistência à pragas e doenças, aspectos dos frutos como coloração, firmeza e formato além dos teores de carotenóides SILVA, 2010;BORGES et al, 2019). Em relação às doenças, destaca-se a procura de genótipos resistentes a fitoviroses.…”
