Phylogenetic informativeness analyses to clarify past diversification processes in Cucurbitaceae

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Phylogenomic studies have so far mostly relied on genome skimming or target sequence capture, which suffer from representation bias and can fail to resolve relationships even with hundreds of loci.

Identification and characterization of a cucumber accession resistant to tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV) causes significant yield and fruit quality losses in cucurbit crops, particularly in the Mediterranean region. We identified a new source of resistance to ToLCNDV in cucumber (accession ABS.PE.045) and mapped resistance to four genomic intervals in chromosomes 1, 2, 6, and 7.

Artificial Selections for Life‐History Traits Affect Effective Cumulative Temperature and Developmental Zero Point in Zeugoducus cucurbitae

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Effective cumulative temperature and developmental zero point are key predictors of organismal development and distribution. Traditionally considered species‐specific, these values can vary within populations due to genetic differences. Yet, the role of selection pressures in shaping them remains unexplored.

Shedding Light on Shining Leaf Chafers: Rutelinae MacLeay, 1819 (Coleoptera, Scarabaeoidea, Scarabaeidae) as a Neglected Group of Pollinators

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interactions between insects and angiosperms date back to millions of years ago. Among the groups of pollinating animals, it is estimated that insects are responsible for pollinating more than 70% of angiosperms. Coleoptera is one of the most studied insect groups for pollination.

Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Fruit Quality and Fusarium Wilt Race 2 Resistance in Cucumis melo Breeding Lines and Their F1 Hybrids

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cucumis melo, a sweet‐tasting fruit from the Cucurbitaceae family, is popular in global markets. While some varieties of C. melo are used for pickling or salads, melons such as cantaloupes and honeydews are consumed as a dessert. Desirable appearance, shelf life and palatability are crucial in determining a variety's success.

Boris Timofeevich Matienko and Early Research on Cucurbit Crops at the Moldavian Academy of Sciences

open access: yesHortScience
Boris Timofeevich Matienko (1929–2004) was a respected plant anatomist and physiologist in Soviet Moldova. Matienko’s research was primarily on the growth, development, and senescence of cucurbits, as well as apples, plums, and other vegetable crops. His

The complete chloroplast genome and phylogenetic analysis of Indofevillea khasiana (Cucurbitaceae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The first complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Indofevillea khasiana was reported in this study. The I. khasiana cp genome was 159,238 bp in size, with two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,275 bp separated by a large single copy (LSC) region of 88,538 ...
