The first EUCARPIA Meeting on Genetics and Breeding of Cucurbitaceae was organized by INRA, France 24 years ago. The following meetings were held in Poland (1992), Spain (1996), Isra- el (2000), Czech Republic (2004) and France (2008). It is a great honor and privilege for us to host the 10th EUCARPIA Cucurbitaceae Meeting in Antalya. Turkey is an important country in agricultural production and very rich in Cucurbit genetic resources. You will have the opportunity to see our genetic diver- sity in all Cucurbit species during our technical excursion. We expect more than 220 participants from 33 countries at the meeting in Rixos Downtown Hotel in Antalya. About 70% of the participants are from public research institutions and 30% are from private seed companies. We are pleased to welcome the international scientific community on cucurbit genetics, breeding and genomics. The proceeding contains 35 full text papers presented in oral sessions and 96 papers presented as posters at the Xth EUCARPIA Meeting on Genetics and Breed- ing of Cucurbitaceae. The authors should be thanked for their willingness to share their results. Our special thanks to scientific committee members for their contribution in evaluating oral and poster presentation and reviewing all the papers. We also thank the keynote speakers for their informative presentations. This meeting is vital for transferring results, stimulating new ideas for re- search topics, and in fostering co-operation possibilities. We would like to thank EUCARPIA, our public (Çukurova University, Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Livestock and Turkish Scientific and Technological Council) and private sponsors (Antalya Tarim, Manier Seed, Yuksel Seed, Syngenta, AG Seed, Fito Seed, Multi Seed, Nunhems and Rijk Zwaan) for accepting financial support of the meeting. We are grateful to the public institutions and private companies taking place in the technical trip. We also thank Bilkon Tourism and Travel Agency for their excellent service and organization. We will do our best to make Cucurbitaceae 2012 a most informative and enjoyable experience for all participants. We hope you enjoy this meeting and your stay in Antalya, Turkey.

One was the decision to wait in order to have four Hsiang Lectures in this volume rather than the customary three. The delay and small increase in the number of lectures bring new horizons in research on Chinese poetry to our readers. Indeed, in terms of the time frame covered, this volume focuses mostly, but not exclusively, on the twentieth century. Three of the four lectures are fascinating studies of the manifold significations of classical verse and their continued vitality in the discursive space of Chinese politics and culture in a century of modernization.

Abstract A procedure for the regeneration of melon (Cucumis melo L.) cv. Maazoun and Beji via shoot organogenesis from cotyledon explants is described. Cotyledons explants cultivated on the basal Murashige and Skoog (1962) medium, added with combinations of BAP, NAA and 2,4-D developed adventitious shoots after two weeks. The rates of caulogenesis varied according to the medium hormonal composition and the genotype. The best induction medium for a morphogenic response was MS containing 0.5 mgl-1 NAA and 2 mgl-1 BAP. The highest caulogenesis percentages were 79.16% and 58.33% for Maazoun and Beji cultivars respectively. The mean number of buds per callus was 2.92. Development phases were characterized by histological studies. Some phases of shoot organogenesis were observed in Cucumis melo L. Maazoun and Beji cultivars. The shoots were rooted in MS medium without growth regulators or added NAA (0.5 or 1 mgl-1).

  • Genetic Stability in Melon Transformation System: Assessment by Flow Cytometry and ISSR Markers
    Genetic Stability in Melon Transformation System: Assessment by Flow Cytometry and ISSR Markers Mohammad Reza Raji ( [email protected] ) Lorestan University Mostafa Farajpour Crop and Horticultural Science Research Department Research Article Keywords: Gene Transformation, Direct Organogenesis, Genetic Fidelity, Inter Single Sequence Repeat Marker, Flow Cytometry Posted Date: August 17th, 2021 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-756109/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/14 Abstract Genetic instability in melon species sometimes occurs as a result of in vitro tissue culture and transformation systems. This study describes a new regeneration technique for agrobacterium-mediated co-culture of muskmelon explants (Cucumis melo L. c.v. ‘Khatooni’). Here, no genetic instability was observed in positive PCR regenerants. 4-day-old cotyledonary explants had been infected with LBA4404 Agrobacterium suspensions. The co-cultivation occurred in the presence of 100mg/l rifampicin and 50mg/l kanamycin. The bacteria contained a binary vector pBI121 carrying nopaline synthase by the promoter-neomycin phosphotransferase gene. The regeneration succeeded 65% in selective MS medium containing N6-benzylaminopurine (600 µg/l), β-naphthoxyacetic acid (25 µg/l) and 50mg/l kanamycin in inoculated 4-day-old cotyledonary explants. According to the polymerase chain reaction analysis of neomycin phosphotransferase II gene, transformation was merely successful (8.4%), indicating a substantial miss on a large number of regenerated plants in the selective medium, as a consequence of PGR and antibiotic imbalances. Inter Single Sequence Repeat markers and ow cytometry analyses were used for evaluating the genetic stability and ploidy level of transplants, respectively.

  • Phylogenetic Relationships in the Order Cucurbitales and a New Classification of the Gourd Family (Cucurbitaceae)
    Schaefer & Renner • Phylogenetic relationships in Cucurbitales TAXON 60 (1) • February 2011: 122–138 TAXONOMY Phylogenetic relationships in the order Cucurbitales and a new classification of the gourd family (Cucurbitaceae) Hanno Schaefer1 & Susanne S. Renner2 1 Harvard University, Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, 22 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138, U.S.A. 2 University of Munich (LMU), Systematic Botany and Mycology, Menzinger Str. 67, 80638 Munich, Germany Author for correspondence: Hanno Schaefer, [email protected] Abstract We analysed phylogenetic relationships in the order Cucurbitales using 14 DNA regions from the three plant genomes: the mitochondrial nad1 b/c intron and matR gene, the nuclear ribosomal 18S, ITS1-5.8S-ITS2, and 28S genes, and the plastid rbcL, matK, ndhF, atpB, trnL, trnL-trnF, rpl20-rps12, trnS-trnG and trnH-psbA genes, spacers, and introns. The dataset includes 664 ingroup species, representating all but two genera and over 25% of the ca. 2600 species in the order. Maximum likelihood analyses yielded mostly congruent topologies for the datasets from the three genomes. Relationships among the eight families of Cucurbitales were: (Apodanthaceae, Anisophylleaceae, (Cucurbitaceae, ((Coriariaceae, Corynocarpaceae), (Tetramelaceae, (Datiscaceae, Begoniaceae))))). Based on these molecular data and morphological data from the literature, we recircumscribe tribes and genera within Cucurbitaceae and present a more natural classification for this family.
