INHERITANCE OF RESISTANCE TO WATERMELON MOSAIC VIRUS 2 (WMV-2) IN SUMMER SQUASH (Cucurbita pepo L.) [PDF]

Journal of Plant Production, 2005
Interspecific cross was made between C. moschata L. Nigerian local cv. as a source to resistance of some virus diseases and C. pepo L. Eskandrani cv. which is highly susceptible to most virus diseases especially Watermelon mosaic 2 0NMV-2).

Temperature and soil moisture manipulation yields evidence of drought-induced pollen limitation in bee-pollinated squash. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Climate change alters environmental conditions in ways that directly and indirectly affect plants. We investigated how warming and drought impacted reproduction in bee‐pollinated squash using a fully crossed factorial temperature by irrigation manipulation experiment.

Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus: A persistent seed‐borne threat to cucurbits

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 1, July 2026.
Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus (CGMMV) is a highly stable, seed‐borne tobamovirus that threatens global cucurbit production. Its efficient mechanical and seed transmission, long‐term environmental persistence, and the spread of Clade II CGMMV isolates drive its rapid dissemination and cause severe yield losses.

Role of mitochondrial complex I genes in host plant expansion of Bactrocera tau (Tephritidae: Diptera) by CRISPR/Cas9 system

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 147-158, February 2026.
The role of 3 mitochondrial complex I gene in host expansion of Bactrocera tau was verified by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system. A stable homogenous strain (Btndufa7‐/‐) of B.tau was established after silencing Ndufa7. The reduced size of larvae and pupae of Ndufa7 knockout strain was first found.Then different levels of fitness and relative expression ...

Toward an art of genomic selection in vegetable breeding

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Genomic selection (GS) is a powerful strategy for accelerating genetic gain in plant breeding. While in recent years GS has been widely adopted in breeding programs for agronomic crops, its implementation in vegetable breeding has been comparatively limited.
