“…Moreover, consumers will prefer thick flesh rather than thin flesh. The other criteria are fresh flesh texture, attractive flesh color (usually green, yellow, or orange), firm rind for transportation, and attractive appearance (Grumet et al 2007;Matsumoto et al 2014;Suwarno et al 2016). Fruit will be accepted by the market and liked by consumers if it has a minimum of 10º Brix (Ferrante et al 2008;Naidu et al 2013).…”

Abstract. Maghfiroh RN, Suwarno WB, Sobir, Gunawan E. 2023. Assessment of relationship among traits and genotypes for melon (Cucumis melo) breeding. Biodiversitas 24: 4523-4531. Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is widely consumed as fresh fruit or juice, and therefore deeper analyses of fruit quality are needed for future breeding purposes. Breeders have a role in providing improved melon varieties that suit consumer ideotypes or preferences. This study aimed to (i) evaluate the performance of melon genotypes, (ii) estimate the correlation between quantitative traits, and (iii) determine the clustering among genotypes based on plant and fruit traits. This research evaluated 24 genotypes from inodorus, reticulatus, and makuwa groups that were carried out from March to June 2022 at a greenhouse in the Tajur experimental station of the Center for Tropical Horticulture Studies, Bogor, Indonesia. IPB HD 2-111 and IPB HD 2-100 had good quality based on soluble solids content, fruit shape, flesh texture, and rind color, and G30 was relatively superior on flesh thickness, fruit weight, and vitamin C. Based on the multiple regression analysis, it was known that petal width, petiole length, and days to harvest were significantly affected the proportion of fruit cavity width to the fruit diameter. The adjusted coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.569. Cluster analysis grouped 23 genotypes into three main clusters based on the neighbor-joining method. These results may be useful for selection in melon breeding programs.

Food-derived gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) exhibits health-promoting benefits, and melon contain high GABA concentrations. Greenhouse melons (Cucumis melo L. “Earl’s Favorite”) cultivated in Japan have identical or more edible parts than cultivars in other countries, however GABA distribution and the effects of seasonal variations are unclear. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate GABA concentration gradients in four seasonal melons and how glutamic acid (Glu) influences the establishment of these gradients. GABA concentration was significantly lower near the exocarp than in the peduncle, equator, and remnant style regions in most seasons. Glu and GABA concentrations showed similar trends and were significantly correlated near the remnant style. No significant differences in GABA and Glu concentration were detected at concyclic sites across horizontal sections. These data indicate that GABA and Glu concentration differs substantially along a vertical melon section, but less so along a horizontal section, among sampling regions, sites, and cropping season.

Development of a New Melon Cultivar ‘Ibaraking’ with High Fruit Growth Ability under Low Temperature Conditions, High Total Soluble Solid Content, and Resistance to Fusarium Wilt

Abstract: Abstract'Ibaraking' is a new F 1 melon (Cucumis melo L.) cultivar with green-fleshed fruit, high fruit growth ability under low-temperature conditions, high total soluble solid (TSS) content, and a long shelf life. It was developed from a cross between 2 parental lines P2 and P32 at
