tailieunhanh - Sex manipulation in cucurbitaceous vegetables

Sex manipulation is attributed to alter the ratio of male to female flowers within the individuals. A wide range of variation in sex forms ranging from primitive hermaphrodite to gynoecious advanced sex form is observed in cucurbitaceous vegetable crops. Sex expression in cucurbitaceae family is regulated by environmental, genetic and hormonal factors. In general, female sex expression is promoted by low temperature and short photoperiod, which may influence the level of endogeneous hormones (ethylene, auxin and GA) which in turn influence the sex expression. Sex inheritance plays an important role in breeding programme. |
