Molecular cytogenetic mapping of Cucumis sativus and C. melo using highly repetitive DNA sequences [PDF]
, 2010 Chromosomes often serve as one of the most important molecular aspects of studying the evolution of species. Indeed, most of the crucial mutations that led to differentiation of species during the evolution have occurred at the chromosomal level ...

Exploring Heterosis in Melon (Cucumis melo L.) [PDF]
Plants, 2020 Heterosis is the superiority of an F1 hybrid over its parents. Since this phenomenon is still unclear in melon, a half diallel experiment based on eight genetically distant breeding lines was conducted in six environments of Central Italy, assessing commercially important traits: yield, total soluble solids (TSS), and days to ripening (DTR).
