Effects of Different Melon Cultivars on Fruit Quality and Field Traits
This study aims to select suitable muskmelon cultivars for planting in Weinan,Shaanxi province,in order to facilitate the industrialization of local characteristic melons and fruits.We conducted comparative ex-periments on 37 melon cultivars,evaluating traits such as field growth,disease resistance,fruit set rate,and de-formity rate.We also performed correlation,principal components,and comprehensive evaluation analysis of the main field traits.The results indicate that"7-12 ∗7-15"and"7-12 ∗7-13"exhibit the best overall performance and are suitable for planting in the local area.
