Establish Cucurbitaceae vegetable breeding technologies of heat tolerance

On heat tolerance breeding of ccurbitaceae, 21 excellent inbred lines of cucumber were selected and promoted to increase generation. In terms of 15 hybrds were completed evaluation and applied for a plant variety right. Bitter gourd were selected and promoted to increase generation 60 lines and the evaluation of 40 hybrids. On these hybrids, the white-skinned bitter gourd hybrids among 10 hybrids include HW20 were better than others. In addition, the green-skinned bitter gourd hybrids among 12 hybrids include HG24 were better than others and met the target market demand. Pumpkin cultivation and performance evaluation of 21 hybrids selected 2 hybrids for their characteristics of high yield, good eating quality, good peel color and resistance to fading.
