In 1989, a wilt and stem rot of muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) was reported on seedlings grown under plastic in northern Serbia (1). In 1998, a similar disease of watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris L.) transplants occurred in central Serbia, resulting in losses estimated at 20% of plants grown in the
Melon necrotic spot virus (MNSV) was recently identified on watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris) in Korea, displaying as large necrotic spots and vein necrosis on the leaves and stems. The average occurrence of MNSV on watermelon was found to be 30-65% in Hapcheon and Andong City, respectively. Four
Citrullus plants were grown in refined sand with varying levels of chromium to determine their tolerance limit to excess chromium. The plants were maintained in control nutrient solution for 24 days and on the 25th day chromium as dichromate was added at 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 mM. A control set
Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV, genus Potyvirus, family Potyviridae) is economically important due to its worldwide distribution and because it can cause serious losses in both cucurbit crops and papaya (3). PRSV has been previously reported from cucurbit crops in Iran (2). In Khuzestan Province,
The phytol isolated from watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) sprouts inhibited the growth of a human T-cell leukemia line Jurkat cell and suppressed tumor progression in a xenograft model of human lung adenocarcinoma epithelial cell line A549 in nude mice. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying the
BACKGROUND
Citrullus colocynthis (L.) Schrad is an important medicinal plant belonging to the family Cucurbitaceae. Cucurbitacin E glucoside (1) was isolated from Citrullus colocynthis fruits. A novel mono-ester of cucurbitacin-E and cinnamyl and caffeoyl-β-D-glucoside (2 and 3) was synthesized by
