Germplasm Development and Innovation of High Quality Edible Pumpkin: Halixiang NO.1.

Article Preview

Abstract:

Pumpkin is one of the major vegetable crops in cucurbit family. Due to its easy cultivation, high yield, long shelf life and abundant nutriments, pumpkin is very popular in China. In this paper, we study on the germplasm development and innovation of high quality edible pumpkin: Halixiang NO.1. We also discussed the species quality, characteristics and field management.
