Parthenocarpy in Cucumis sativus L. as Affected by Genetic Parthenocarpy, Thermo-photoperiod, and Femaleness1

open access: yesJournal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1977
Abstract Parthenocarpic fruiting of genetically parthenocarpic and non-parthenocarpic pickling cucumber lines was determined under different thermo-photoperiods. The genetically parthenocarpic line, MSU 364G, produced both earlier and more fruits under all thermo-photoperiod treatments than the genetically non-parthenocarpic line, Gy ...

Analysis on Unveiling the Natural Dynamics of Parthenocarpy and Self-Compatibility in Apple Trees

open access: yesHorticulturae
Apple (Malus domestica) is self-incompatible and typically requires cross-pollination for seed and fruit development. Parthenocarpy (fruit development without fertilization) and self-compatibility (fruit set without external pollen) are highly desirable ...

Combining ability of summer-squash lines with different degrees of parthenocarpy and PRSV-W resistance

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2011
The aim was to assess heterosis in a set of 16 summer-squash hybrids, and evaluate the combining capacity of the respective parental lines, which differed as to the degree of parthenocarpy and resistance to PRSV-W (Papaya Ringspot Virus-Watermelon strain)

Improving Crossing Efficiency by Exploiting the Genetic Potential of Allotetraploid Cooking Bananas

open access: yesHorticulturae
Conventional breeding involves considerable genetic recombination. To maximize breeding efforts, it is necessary to increase seed yield. This study proposes to improve seed yield by using tetraploid bananas as part of a genetic improvement programme for ...

The DOF Transcription Factor SlDOF10 Regulates Vascular Tissue Formation During Ovary Development in Tomato

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
The formation of fruits is an important step in the life cycle of flowering plants. The process of fruit development is highly regulated and involves the interaction of a complex regulatory network of genes in both space and time.

The Induction of Parthenocarpy in Petunia

open access: yesAnnals of the Missouri Botanical Garden, 1952
Numerous attempts to induce haploidy in plants have been made in the past, and the techniques have varied widely. These have included, among other methods, hybridization, both intergeneric and interspecific (Clausen and Mann, 1924; Gaines and Aase, 1926); cold and heat treatments (Blakeslee et al, 1922; Belling and Blakeslee, 1927; Randolph, 1932 ...

Exogenous Gibberellins Affect the Setting, Development, and Quality of ‘Golden Delicious’ Apple Fruits

open access: yesAgriculture
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of gibberellins on the setting and quality of parthenocarpic apples (Malus × domestica Borkh.). The experiment was conducted in 2021 on the ‘Golden Delicious’ cultivar in the Warsaw University of Life ...

PARTHENOCARPY INDUCED BY POLLEN EXTRACTS [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, 1937
PARTHENOCARPY, unlike parthenogenesis, is a term infrequently used.; yet the former phenomenon is perhaps the more prevalent of the two. Bananas, seedless grapes, grapefruit, oranges, and cucumbers may be cited as common illustrations of parthenocarpy. But these are not the parthenocarpic fruits in which the writer is interested.
