Abstract

Twenty and 16 accessions of the countrywide weedy melon (Cucumis melo var. agrestis) collections were evaluated in 1986 and 1990, respectively. There was a good variation in the plant height and their leaves were small in general. In sex expression, 30 of the accessions were andromonoecious, 4 were monoecious and 2 were hermaphrodite. Female flower set on main stems was extremely rare except for on hermaphrodite. On andromonoecious and monoecious plants, abundant female flowers set at the 1st and 2nd node of branch vines. Bitter taste was found in the young fruits of all the accessions tested. Mature fruits were dark yellow, yellow, light yellow or milky white in color, small in size, and very low in sweet taste. The number of seeds per fruit varied from 50.6 to 158.4 showing the characteristics of wild species for perpetuation in wild.

국내 전역에서 수집된 야생 참외 계통 중 1986년에 20계통, 1990년에 16계통에 대해 재배시험결과는 계통간에 초장에 변이가 있었고 잎은 작은 편이었다. 성표현형은 양성웅화동주형 30계통, 자웅동주형 4계통, 양성화주형이 2계통이었다. 주지에서 암꽃착생은 양성화주형을 제외하고는 극히 드물었다. 양성웅화동주형과 자웅동주형은 측지의 제 1, 2절에는 암꽃착생이 현저하였다. 유과에는 모두 고미질이 확인되었다. 숙과의 색은 진황, 황, 연황, 황녹, 유백색이였으며 과중은 매우 작았고 숙과의 감미는 매우 낮았다. 일과당 종자수는 50.6-158.4개로 야생종 및 종족유지의 특징을 보여주고 있었다.
