Rootstock potential of auto and Allotetraploid Citron [Citrullus lanatus var. citroides (L. H. Bailey) Mansf.] for Watermelon [Citrullus lanatus var lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai] under hydroponic conditions: plant growth and some physiological characteristics
Abstract:The emergence of some physiological and fruit quality problems due to the common squash rootstocks used in watermelon has led researchers to search for alternative rootstocks sources. Exploitation of novel Citrullus germplasm such as citronmelon (Citrullus lanatus var. citroides) is an alternative to avoid these problems. In this study, rootstocks potential of auto and allotetraploid citrullus genotypes for watermelon were investigated as regard to plant growth and some physiological parameters under hyroponic… Show more
