Starch Degradation in Buttercup Squash (Cucurbita maxima) [PDF]
Extractable activities of α-amylase, β-amylase, and starch phosphorylase were investigated in order to understand the mechanism of starch degradation in buttercup squash ( Cucurbita maxima Duchesne ex Lam.

Physiological changes in seeds and seedlings of pumpkins submitted to salt stress
Salinity is one of the most limiting environmental factors for plant growth in semi-arid regions. Excess of salts reduces water potential, causes physiological drought and can influence germination and initial growth of plants.

Morphological study of squash seeds at different stages of maturation through the use of X-ray
Analysis of images has been recently used in order to both assess seed quality and elucidate some aspects of seed physiology, including X-ray tests and other resources. The objective of this study was to examine whether the X-ray may be successfully used
