[EN] Cucurbita pepo is a worldwide cultivated vegetable of American origin. Most of the widely grown commercial types are known as summer squashes and belong to the elongated forms of C. pepo ssp. pepo (Cocozelle, Vegetable ...
[EN] Cucurbit crops are economically important worldwide. One of the most serious threats to cucurbit production is Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV). Several resistant accessions were identified in Cucurbita moschata ...
Background: We have identified a kind of parthenocarpy in zucchini squash which is associated with an incomplete andromonoecy, i.e. a partial conversion of female into bisexual flowers. Given that andromonoecy in this and ...

The aim of this work was to study the changes in volume, density, porosity and shape factors of pumpkin tissue during osmotic dehydration (OD) and air drying (AD). Pumpkin cylinders with length/diameter ratio of 5/3 were ...
Parthenocarpy is becoming an essential trait for off-season greenhouse production of Zucchini squash. Given that winter conditions promote a reduction in the number of male flowers and in the activity of pollinators, the ...
Background: Cucurbita pepo belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family. The "Zucchini" types rank among the highest-valued vegetables worldwide, and other C. pepo and related Cucurbita spp., are food staples and rich sources of ...
