Isozyme Variation in Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.).

Engei Gakkai zasshi, 1992
The Indian wild cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. var. hardwickii Kitamura) and 81 accessions of cucumber (C. sativus) were examined for isozyme variations of six enzymes.Variations were observed in malate dehydrogenase (MDH), 6-phosphogluconic dehydrogenase (6-PGD), phosphoglucomutase (PGM) and phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI), whereas shikimate ...

A PLETHORA3/7 transcription factor shapes cucumber shoot architecture

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 230-245, April 2026.
Summary PLETHORA transcription factors (PLTs) are master regulators of plant development. Loss of shoot meristematic PLTs leads to reduced phyllotactic regularity and robustness in Arabidopsis and increased inflorescence branching in tomato. Whether these factors have similar functions in other species is not known.

Physicochemical and Functional Characterization of Cucumis sativus L. (Poona Kheera) Mucilage and Its Application as a Coating to Inhibit Enzymatic Browning in Fresh-Cut Apples

Foods
Enzymatic browning is a major challenge in maintaining the quality and shelf life of fresh-cut fruits, and in this context, plant-derived hydrocolloids are increasingly recognized as sustainable alternatives to synthetic additives due to their ability to

Multifaceted roles of BBX transcription factors: impacts on key agronomical traits and environmental resilience

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 762-787, April 2026.
Summary B‐box (BBX) proteins were initially characterized as transcription factors connecting light signaling to the regulation of flowering time and seedling photomorphogenesis. However, over the last decade, increasing evidence has shown that they integrate light and hormone signaling, modulating multiple physiological processes during plant life. In

Soil acidity stress: A faba bean (Vicia faba L.) cultivation challenge in Ethiopia, mitigation, and future perspectives

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil acidity is among the most important abiotic stresses globally constraining agricultural land and crop productivity. Globally, about 30%–40% of total arable land is under the influence of acidic soil. In Ethiopia, approximately 43% of arable land and productive areas are constrained by acidic soil.

Immunological comparison of the NADH:nitrate reductase from different cucumber tissues

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Soluble nitrate reductase from cucumber roots (Cucumis sativus L.) was isolated and purified with blue-Sepharose 4B. Specific antibodies against the NR protein were raised by immunization of a goat.

Evolutionary and Functional Characterization of an Auxin Methyltransferase (CsIAMT) in Cucumber Reveals Its Role in Stress Adaptation and Development

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
The plant SABATH methyltransferase family drives phenotypic diversity evolution through gene duplication and new functionalization. Among them, IAMT, as the most ancient member of this family, is widely present in various species. The study identified a potential auxin methyltransferase homologous to IAMT (CsIAMT) in cucumber, which can catalyze IAA ...

Estimation of leaf area for greenhouse cucumber by linear measurements under salinity and grafting Estimativa da área foliar do pepino em ambiente protegido por medidas lineares sob salinidade e enxertia

Scientia Agricola, 2005
The measurement of leaf area by linear parameters is a useful tool when plants cannot be destroyed for direct measurement. The objectives of this study were to establish equations to estimate the leaf area of greenhouse-cucumber and to evaluate the ...

Waste tires to fertilizer: Carbon black zinc fertilizer for maize in calcareous soils

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Waste tires accumulate in massive quantities worldwide, posing significant environmental challenges. Pyrolysis under high vacuum offers a potential disposal solution, producing recovered carbon black (CB) enriched in zinc (Zn) from zinc oxide used in tire manufacture.
