Author(s): NASCIMENTO. T. L. do; SOUZA, F. de F.; DIAS, R. de C. S.; SILVA, E. F. da This study aimed to estimate the relative heterosis in watermelon hybrids, regarding the most important agronomic traits, in order to develop future cultivars. |
Author(s): SOUZA, F. de F.; QUEIRÓZ, M. A. de; DIAS, R. de C. S. Twelve experimental triploid hybrids were evaluated to estimate heterotic effects for some plant and fruit traits in triploid watermelon (Citrullus lanatus). Tiffany, a triploid hybrid was used as sta... ... |
Author(s): NASCIMENTO, T. L. do; SOUZA, F. de F.; DIAS, R. de C. S.; SANTOS, J. S. dos; MELO, N. F. de Seed sizeis an important agronomic trait and is applicable todifferent abilities. Small seeds guarantee the greater use of the pulp, while larger seeds facilitate sowing. However, there is little work... ... |
Author(s): GAMA, R. N. C. da S.; SANTOS, C. A. F.; DIAS, R. de C. S. We analyzed the genetic variability of 40 watermelon accessions collected from 8 regions of Northeastern Brazil using microsatellite markers, in order to suggest strategies of conservation and utiliza... ... |
Author(s): GAMA, R. N. C. S.; SANTOS, C. A. F.; DIAS, R. de C. S.; SOUZA, F. de F. Allelic patterns and genetic similarity among 17 watermelon cultivars were established using microsatellite markers. For visualization of the genetic similarity, the dendrogram UPGMA (Unweighted Pair... ... |
Author(s): SANTOS, J. S. dos; DIAS, R. de C. S.; GRANGEIRO, L. C.; SIMOES, W. L.; DEON, M. D. Chemical fertilizing is one of the main inputs that increase watermelon production costs. Watermelon grafting with compatible rootstocks and a vigorous root system may increase the efficiency of nutri... ... |
Author(s): SILVA, J. E. S. B. da; MATIAS, J. R.; GUIRRA, K. S.; ARAGÃO, C. A.; ARAUJO, G. G. L. de; DANTAS, B. F. The limited access and the scarcity of good quality water for agriculture are some of the major problems faced in agricultural areas, particularly in arid and semiarid regions. The aim of this study w... ... |
Author(s): DAMACENO, L. S.; QUEIROZ, M. A. de; DIAS, R. de C. S.; CASTRO, J. M. da C. e; TEIXEIRA, F. A. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of progenies from Citrullus lanatus var. lanatus (cultivated watermelons) when crossed with progenies from C. lanatus var. citroides (fodder water... ... |
Induction of polyploidy in watermelon genotype with powdery mildew resistance (Podosphaera xanthii). Author(s): SILVA, C. M. de J.; DIAS, R. de C. S.; SANTOS, J. S. dos; SOUZA, F. de F.; MELO, N. F. de Triploid watermelon is highly appreciated by the most demanding markets, and due to its small size, it is ideal for consumption by small families. With the growth in areas cultivated with seedless wat... ... |
Author(s): SILVA, C. M. de J.; DIAS, R. de C. S.; MELO, N. F. de Callus induction is one of the pathways required for haploid plant regeneration through anther culture. Pollen viability, as well as the effect of growth regulators and cold pretreatment on anthers of... ... |
