Cucurbita - Science topic

I'm doing a research on winter squash, but i have a hard time finding any scientific data about the suberizationprocess in winter squash.

I'm doing a study on the shelf life and suberizationprocess of winter squash. I couldn't find a study that specifically researched the factors that influence the shelf life of winter squash.

Symptoms observed on Zucchini plant..

Only experts needs to react please..thanks

Biointegrity is about ensemble ornamentation radiate energy do to weathers forecasting elements, combination of the energy and warmth of the sun with the cozy closeness of the winter to what the future hold in the spring. Seed, grains and possible derivative of the green-faced which in modern harvest of pumpkin, turnips and rosemary. As security exchange, money focused on feeling of prosperity and security. Dough is smooth and elastic in consistency but the scope and scale is a way to gauge accuracy as progress. Harvesting is a timeless energy of a wonderful feeling of community. Winter origin in distant past, ice age, originally still made of turnips, apple bobbing, ghostly world, even-trick-or-treating have spring significance which focus on let go of the past and has connected to the future of autumn and pumpkin. This is differentiation.

I have been reviewing various journals for the visual leaf as well as fruit damage scoring of Red Pumpkin Beetle (Aulacophora foveicollis). It would be really helpful if any of you have some authentic source or reference for this evaluation.

Powdery mildew on squash leaves caused by (Sphaerotheca fuliginea or Podosphaera xanthii?

I'm experiencing damage to my pumpkin vines, particularly on new growth. Chunks parallel to the vine are removed, flowers are missing, and some new growth appears to be gnawed completely through. I have yet to catch the culprit in the act. Any ideas?

I am looking into developing a chemical profile of Spinach, Kale, Pumpkins and Beetroot (and similar vegetables) which could be further used in authentication of purees of these vegetables. The analytical question would be - how do I distinguish that a spinach puree is made of 100% spinach, and not of 30-50% another (cheaper/more available) leafy plant?

Given that a profile of semi-finished goods (juices/puree) of fruits are well studied, and we have several authenticity models - what parameters could be included in the authenticity analyses of such vegetable products? Drastical technological difference between fruit and vegetable processing should be taken into consideration as well.

Hello, I am trying to use the root squash method to observe mitosis in almond (Prunus) shoot apical meristems, but I'm not getting clear staining of chromosomes. This is the protocol I'm using so far:

1) Collect apical buds from the tree and preserve in a cooler on ice.

2) Dissect an almond meristem and inner-most leaf primordia from an actively growing apical bud.

3) place meristem on a microscope slide. Treat with an even mixture of HCl (I've tried 2M to 0.5M) and aceto orcein dye (I've tried 1% to 0.025%).

4) Place slide on a hot plate on low heat to evaporate the mixture. Don't dry completely.

5) Resaturate meristem with aceto-orcein dye and place a coverslip on top.

6) Cover slide with a paper towel and "squash" the meristem into a single cell layer by pressing down with an Erlenmeyer flask.

7) view slide under microscope starting at 4X and going to 1000X (oil immersion)

I'm very confident in my ability to excise meristems. I believe the HCl is properly dissolving the pectin from between the cell walls and "squash" step are correct since the meristem appears to be in a single layer of cells when viewed under the microscope.

There doesn't seem to be anything in the literature about shoot apical meristem squashes. Is there a good reason for that? Does anyone have a suggestion to improve the result? the first 2 photos are the shoot apical meristems (using different percentages of dye). The second photo is from a colleague who applied the same method to rice roots and clearly shows the chromosomes.

The plants were healthy at vegetative stage but at flowering stage in some plant leaf structure changed and gradually this symptom spread in many plants in field. We uprooted more than 20 plants and still this disease in field has potential to reduce yield dramatically.

I am conducting an experimental research on the germination enhancement of squash affected by mechanical, chemical and thermal scarification methods..i have researched about time- to-event method in collecting data but I am confused how will I do it??is this method appropriate for my study??

Following an experiment where Zea mays and Cucurbita pepo seeds were planted individually and together, results showed a positive allelopathic effect on germination and seeling lenght as both seeds had 100% germination when planted together as against 92 and 96% when planted individually. The seedling length was also positively influenced by this interaction.

My question now is:

Why do the allelopathic produce this positive effect?

I prepared flower buds to karyotype for Yam crop. Flower buds were collected at 10am and directly fixed 3:1; ethanol and acetic acid for 24 hrs. and kept at room temperature. Pollens were removed from anther, squashed and stained with FLP ORCEIN solution for 60 to 90 minutes to allow enough dye accumulation. The prepared samples, mounted between slides and coverslip, were observed under 40 X magnification and captured at 100X magnification with oil immersion using an optical microscope. Another steps involves squashing of flower buds without removing anther/pollen because of using small buds size at tip location. I am only observing mitotic cell division.

I've been taking to a young geneticist from New Zealand, at the beach in Formentera. She agreed with me, analyzing and comparing genetic codes for Yemeni 'pricky pears' tree and Mexican one, we should know from where proceed the plant, that way solving some historical mysteries:

- Were Aztecs and more extensively, all American Indians, too stupid to squash an insect (cochineal) between fingers to get bright red color ?

- How comes in the fresco representing Mexico city, the eagle looks more Roman (very similar to a one found in Merida, Spain) than Quetzacoalt? How comes it does not look like graphically the Aztecs bird representations?

- How comes the Spanish Royal color was of Arab origin? By Charles Quint's times, Spain wanted to be dissociated from its Arab past, so they wished a cochineal of their own offering a red color they could call truly Spanish.

- How comes there are no prickly pears in Amazonian forests, nowadays dominated by plants grown by pre-colombian?

- How comes in America, it does not grow on the sea level when it expanded so well in Mediterraneo at sea level it was used by Muslim sailors as an amer to know if you've already been in the place?

- How comes Napoleon III, 19th c. dreaming of an imperial army in red trousers (without being aware he transformed his soldiers in easy targets) and wishing to provoke in Mexico a commercial earthquake, refurbishing the old 'traditional' and 'historical' cochineal production on prickly pears tree, he had to both reintroduce cochineal and prickly pears tree in Mexico?

-How comes in Spanish 'prickly pears is called "higo de Barbarie" (North African fig) and not "higo de Chiapas"(Mexican fig)? Sure, officially Spaniards thought they were in India.

- The roman eagle eating snakes in 1900 years old https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2478904/Roman-sculpture-eagle-devouring-serpent-unearthed-London.html. Is the Mexico eagle eating snakes a more modern version, only 500 years old? https://www.ancientsculpturegallery.com/roman-eagle-mexican-eagle-clutching-the-snake-plaque.html .

All this, solved with only two genetics analyzes.

During our lab experiment, we tested 4 different cell stains on squash plant punches. After incubating for 15 minutes, 30 minutes, and 1 hour, checking progress after each marked time, we noticed that even with the green cell stains tested our plant punches appeared red in color from the UV light fluorescence against the chloroplast.

Respected Experts, I have recently join seed company as research and development officer. My company import hybrids of corn, Potato, squash, Cauliflower, and sorghum. My duties are to conduct trials of imported seed on different location as well as management of these trials and selection of best adapted hybrid .You are experienced in this field, Can anyone please share material that will help me to conduct and manage field trials as well as selection of best adaptable hybrid. My email address: asadhafeezpbg@gmail.com. Please guide me experts. Thanks.

The result of the project was approved by the Agricultural Ministery in 1996. The result was named: Cuban pumpkins, technological variants for their sustainable production.

I purchased a softgel containing saw palmetto and pumpkin seed oil. I plan to cut open the softgels and create a topical solution using the insides of the softgel. However I'm having trouble coming up with a way to dilute the contents of the softgel. The inside solution I know is not water soluble.

I was thinking of dissolving it in olive oil. I'm worried about affecting the bioactives in saw palmetto and pumpkin seed. I also would like to increase the skin penetration of the topical.

Is there anyone who could provide me information concerning recent developments (protocols) in genetic transformation and regeneration of Squash (Cucurbita peop ..)

Hy i want ask one question does anyone know that work have been done on absence or presence of Vg gene in Bactrocera dorsalis and Bactrocera cucurbitae regarding egg yolk protein so far i only find paper on B. dorsalis so if some one know please tell me about this status

plant pathology， Cucurbita pepo breeding,

Is anyone aware of (preferably peer reviewed) publications on the pollination of Cucurbita pepo by Apis mellifera and Bobus sp. (preferably in in Europe)? I am particularily interested in the effect of pollination on C. pepo seed development and yield.

I am developing a guide to heirloom and open-pollinated squash/pumpkins and encountering confusion in definitions and fruits not seeming to match the described characteristics.

Recently I tried to inoculate MYSV for seedling screening. Any of you ever work with MYSV? kindly help me. Thanks.

I found this Lamiaceae with tiny blue corolla on several occasions in dry river beds ('barrancos') close to habitations in Tenerife, Canary Islands. I believe it is a non-native species, introduced with sewage sludge (along with Solanum lycopersicum, Cucurbita spec., Helianthus annuus, Phalaris canariensis, etc.). I guess it either is a spice or a birdseed impurity.

Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Best wishes,
