Open AccessResequencing of 414 cultivated and wild watermelon accessions identifies selection for fruit quality traits
Fruit characteristics of sweet watermelon are largely the result of human selection. Here we report an improved watermelon reference genome and whole-genome resequencing of 414 accessions representing all exta...

Comparative dynamics of ethylene production and expression of the ACS and ACO genes in normal-ripening and non-ripening watermelon fruits
Watermelon fruit is traditionally classified as non-climacteric, but it has been reported to be hypersensitive to exogenous ethylene: resulting in accelerated softening and water-soaking. The previous studies ...

Open AccessAn integrated genetic map based on four map** populations and quantitative trait loci associated with economically important traits in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus)
Modern watermelon (Citrullus lanatus L.) cultivars share a narrow genetic base due to many years of selection for desirable horticultural qualities. Wild subspecies within C. lanatus are important potential sourc...

Dynamic characteristics of sugar accumulation and related enzyme activities in sweet and non-sweet watermelon fruits
Sugar content largely determines watermelon fruit quality. We compared changes in sugar accumulation and activities of carbohydrate enzymes in the flesh (central portion) and mesocarp of elite sweet watermelon...
