Melon (Cucumis melo)

2014
Genetic transformation is an important technique used in plant breeding and to functionally characterize genes of interest. The earliest reports of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation in the melon (Cucumis melo) were from the early 1990s (Fang and Grumet, Plant Cell Rep, 9: 160-164, 1990; Dong et al., Nat Biotechnol 9: 858-863, 1991; Valles and Lasa,

Vector-Assisted Seed Transmission of Melon Necrotic Spot Virus in Melon

Phytopathology, 1996
Seed lots prepared from fruits collected from systemically infected melon plants were tested for seedborne melon necrotic spot carmovirus (MNSV). The hypothesis of "vector-assisted" seed transmission (VAST) was tested in trials with rigorous control of the vector fungus, Olpidium bornovanus.

Effects of pyrazole compounds from melon on the melon aphid Aphis gossypii

Phytochemistry, 1999
Abstract Two secondary compounds of the genus Cucumis , pyrazole and β (pyrazol-1-yl) l -alanine ( β PA), were found and measured in the phloem sap of melon. The effects of these compounds on attractivity, growth inhibition and mortality were tested on aphids from cucurbit and noncucurbit hosts. β PA had no noticeable effect on the aphids tested.

The Melon Paradox

2010
This is a curious problem that comes up regularly in math competitions. You will see it in one form or another in published collections of problems from these competitions. It’s not that the math itself is difficult. The difficulty lies in believing the results. As an example, let’s start with a melon weighing 50 ounces.
