Origin and history of old cucurbit cultivars in Israel and the sources of several internationally important market types

2013-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Over the past century, Israel was a focal point for the improvement of local cucurbit landraces and introduction of cucurbit germplasm. Some improved open-pollinated cucurbit cultivars developed in Israel became established as market types of considerable economic importance far beyond its borders. The origin and history of these cultivars is not widely known and therefore the purpose of the present work was to co...
