BACKGROUND
Cucumis prophetarum (L.) is used in traditional Indian medicine for the treatment of inflammation related problems.
OBJECTIVE
The present investigation was designed to study the effect of N-Trisaccharide (a new compound isolated from the fruit of C. prophetarum (L.)) on hyperglycemia in
In India, a number of medicinal plants and their formulations are used to cure hepatic disorders in traditional systems of medicine. No systemic study has been done on protective effect of Cucumis trigonus Roxb. (Cucurbitaceae) to treat hepatic diseases. Protective action of C. trigonus fruit
OBJECTIVE
The biopesticide effect of four green composts against fusarium wilt in melon plants and the effect of soil quality in soils amended with composts were assayed.
RESULTS
The composts consisted of pruning wastes, with or without addition of coffee wastes (3/1 and 4/1, dry wt/dry wt) or urea
The fully ripened fruit of Katsura-uri Japanese pickling melon ( Cucumis melo var. conomon) has rarely been used for food because the midripened fruit is utilized for making pickles, but the fully ripened fruit is no longer valuable for pickles due to the fruit body being too soft. We have
The continuous cropping obstacle of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) under facility cultivation is more prevalent in China. This is associated with an imbalance in soil microbial and ecological environment in long-term monocultures. It was postulated that intercropping with green garlic would
Phytochrome (phy) signalling in plants may be transduced through protein phosphorylation. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP-kinase, MAPK) activity and the effect of R (red) and FR (far-red) light irradiation on MAPK activity were studied in etiolated Cucumis sativus L. cotyledons. By in vitro
We investigated the expression pattern of three 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) synthase genes, CS-ACS1, CS-ACS2 and CS-ACS3 in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) fruit under CO2 stress. CO2 stress-induced ethylene production paralleled the accumulation of only CS-ACS1 transcripts which
The effect of NaCl on the plasma membrane and tonoplast ATPases measured as the hydrolytic and H(+)-pumping activity was studied. Treatment of cucumber seedlings with salt increased the membrane-bound ATPases of the plasma membrane as well as the tonoplast. In both types of membranes the stimulation
Nitrate reductase (NR) (EC 1.6.6.1) activity and NR activation state, i.e. activity in the presence of Mg(2+) relative to activity in the absence of Mg(2+), in cucumber (Cucumis sativus) leaves increased in the light and decreased in the dark. In contrast to leaves, NR activation state in the roots
The effect of heavy metals on the modification of plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.3.14) activity in cucumber roots was studied. In plants stressed for 2 h with 10 microM or 100 microM Cd, Cu or Ni the hydrolytic as well as the transporting activity of H(+)-ATPase in the plasma membranes of root
Osteoporosis is associated with delayed and/or reduced fracture healing. As cervus and cucumis are the traditional Chinese treatments for rheumatoid arthritis, we investigated the effect of supplementation of these peptides (CCP) on bone fracture healing in ovariectomized (OVX) osteoporotic rats in
A survey was conducted from 2001 to 2004 in the major cucurbit-growing areas in Iran to reassess the relative incidence of cucurbit viruses. Severe yellowing symptoms were observed frequently on older leaves of cucurbit plants in various regions in outdoor crops, suggesting the presence of Cucurbit
The non-climacteric 'Yellow' melon (Cucumis melo, inodorus group) is an economically important crop and its quality is mainly determined by the sugar content. Thus, knowledge of sugar metabolism and its related pathways can contribute to the development of new field management and Comparative and evolutionary genomics analyses are the powerful tools to provide mechanistic insights into important agronomic traits. Here, we completed a chromosome-scale assembly of the "neglected" but vital melon subspecies Cucumis melo ssp. agrestis using single-molecule real-time sequencing,
