Development and Field Evaluation of Multiple Virus-Resistant Bottle Gourd (Lagenaria siceraria)

Abstract: In an effort to develop bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria) as a widely adapted rootstock for watermelon grafting, we sought to identify lines with broad resistance to several cucurbit viruses that are economically important in the United States. Preliminary analysis under greenhouse conditions indicated that the currently available commercial watermelon rootstocks were either highly susceptible or somewhat tolerant to one or more viruses. However, in greenhouse screening, several breeding lines of bottle gourd… Show more

“…The most prevalent viruses causing major impact to cucurbit crop productions worldwide are those aphid‐transmitted viruses in the family Potyviridae , including Papaya ring‐spot virus watermelon strain (PRSV‐W), Watermelon mosaic virus (WMV), and Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) (Lecoq et al ., ; Turechek et al ., ; Ali et al ., ). Commercially available bottle gourd cultivars are generally susceptible to viral diseases (Ling et al ., ). We previously screened the United States Plant Introductions (PIs) of bottle gourd ( L .…”

“…Plant diseases are a major constraint in bottle gourd production (Mashilo et al, 2017). Genetic sources of resistance to a number of economically important diseases have been identified in bottle gourd (Provvidenti, 1981(Provvidenti, , 1995Ling and Levi, 2007;Kousik et al, 2008;Ling et al, 2013;Sarao et al, 2014), but their genetic inheritance of resistance and molecular markers useful for markerassisted selection remain largely unstudied. Among plant diseases, viral diseases are a major limiting factor in cucurbit crop productions.…”
