The genome of melon ( Cucumis melo L.) [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012
We report the genome sequence of melon, an important horticultural crop worldwide. We assembled 375 Mb of the double-haploid line DHL92, representing 83.3% of the estimated melon genome. We predicted 27,427 protein-coding genes, which we analyzed by reconstructing 22,218 phylogenetic trees, allowing mapping of the orthology and paralogy relationships ...

The cause of colouration in the ctenophore Beroë cucumis [PDF]

Current Biology, 2005
Ctenophores are famed for the spectacular iridescence of their comb-rows, but the cause of this bright colouration has never been found. The colour of any given part of a ctenophore comb-row changes as the combs in that region beat and, thus, the angle between each comb and an observer changes.

The CtrCBL1/CtrCIPK6 Complex of Citrus Phosphorylates CtrBBX32 to Regulate CtrSTP1‐Mediated Sugar Accumulation and Cold Tolerance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The CtrCBL1‐CtrCIPK6 module of trifoliate orange (Citrus trifoliata L.) phosphorylates CtrBBX32, triggering its protein degradation under cold conditions, thereby relieving CtrBBX32‐mediated transcriptional repression of CtrZAT10 and CtrSTP1. The consequent upregulation of CtrZAT10 further activates CtrSTP1 expression, which enhances hexose transport ...

Screening wild and cultivated cucurbits against root knot nematode to exploit as rootstocks for grafting in cucumber

Journal of Horticultural Sciences, 2018
Yield of mono-cropped cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) is reduced by root knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita Kofoid and White). Use of resistant rootstocks in grafting may overcome the problem.
