Functional characterization of a melon alcohol acyl-transferase gene family involved in the biosynthesis of ester volatiles. Identification of the crucial role of a threonine residue for enzyme activity [PDF]
, 2005 Volatile esters, a major class of compounds contributing to the aroma of many fruit, are synthesized by alcohol acyl-transferases (AAT). We demonstrate here that, in Charentais melon (Cucumis melo var.

HortScience, 1998 Muskmelons are perishable fleshy fruits with a shelf life of less than 14 days. This short timespan is a serious limitation to marketing of the fruits and reduces the profitability of the crop. Variation exists within and between melon types for postharvest storage ability, indicating a breeding program aimed at introducing longer storage times into ...

A Heat Unit Model to Predict Growth and Development of Muskmelon (Cucumis melo var. reticulatus Naud.) to Anthesis [PDF]
HortScience, 1995 Plant dry weight of muskmelon transplants to anthesis could be predicted from a multiple linear regression based on air and soil temperatures prevailing under 11 mulch and rowcover combinations. The two dependent variables of the regression model consisted of a heat unit formula for air temperatures with a base temperature of 14C and a maximum-reduced ...
