Micro RNAS (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous small non coding RNAs involved in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. In plants, a great number of conserved and specific miRNAs, mainly arising from model species, have been identified to date. However less is known about the diversity of these regulatory RNAs in vegetal species with agricultural and/or horticultural importance....

Euphorbia hirta which is commonly known as "patikan kebo" small herb gives milky latex. This study aims to determine the effect of E. extract in reducing intensity leaf and fruit pest attacks on cucumber plants Cucumis sativus Linn. The results this showed that all treatments with were able suppress had a significant plants. best concentration can reduce these treatment 10% up 4.64%. cucumbers ...

Magnesium transporters (MGTs) play a prominent role in the absorption, transportation, and storage of magnesium plant cells. In present study, MGT gene family members were identified characterized into two species Cucurbitaceae, including Cucumis sativus Citrullus lanatus. Totals 20 19 genes recognized lanatus sativus, respectively. According to their physicochemical properties, each sub-class ...

In this research, twenty genotypes of cucumber (Cucumis sativus) were studied that were collected from different geographical regions. The experiment was conducted as a randomized complete Block Design (RCBD) with four replications in Greenhouse. Data was collected on morphological features, yield and components of yield of cucumber which include: Total fruit yield per pickling, Fruit number pe...

Sex expression in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) and muskmelon (C. melo L.) was correlated with endogenous ethylene production. Plants of gynoecious (all female) sex types of the two species produced more ethylene than monoecius (male-female) plants. C. melo plants of a gynoecious sex type that normally produce only pistillate (female) flowers, when grown with hypobaric ventilation to facilitate...
