Cucumber seedlings, cv. Farbio, planted in the greenhouse on 13 or 27 December or 10 or 24 January, were grown at 21-27 deg C day temperature and 12, 16 or 20 deg night temperatures until 1 April. Later planting produced more fruit than early planting. Night temperature had only a slight effect on fruit numbers/stem, but there was an optimum near 16 deg . The rate of fruit production between 12 and 20 deg was similar, but increased slightly with later planting. Production started earlier with higher night temperature and later planting. Fruit growth was not affected markedly by night temperature and fruit weight at harvest increased with season but was not dependent on the treatments. Fruit length was also independent of night temperature or planting date. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)

Plants of the gynaecious cucumber cv. Farbio were planted under glass, about 30 days after sowing, on 13 and 27 December and on 10 and 24 January. Night temperatures of 12, 16 and 20 deg C were compared until 1 April, the day temperature being 21-27 deg . Only 835 of 3600 flowers aborted shortly after opening. The later planted crops showed less abortion than earlier planted ones and the lower the night temperature the higher was the level of abortion. Abortion of the second and third flowers in an axil accounted for 60% of the total, regardless of night temperature. Fruits were picked every 5 days; those with the longest hanging time (i.e. slowest growth) were found primarily in axils just below axils in which all flowers had aborted. Such fruits are known to have a reduced shelf life [see HcA 50, 7105] and quality could thus be controlled to some extent by selective thinning of fruit in these axils.

Research on the application of growth regulators (ZPT) with the type of manure on cucumber fruit production (Cucumis sativus L.), carried out in the experimental garden of the Faculty of Agriculture, Tabanan University, Kediri Tabanan Bali, from February 2018 to April 2018. Using a Randomized Group Design (RACK). The treatment tried consisted of two factors, namely the type of manure and the type of growth agent. The dosing factor of the growth regulator consists of 3 types, namely: Ga = ZPT Atonik dose 0.5 ml l-1 water; Gg = ZPT Gibgro dose 100 mg 10 l-1 water; Gd = ZPT Dekamon dose 0.5 ml l-1 water. Type of manure consists of 3 types, namely: K0 = without manure; Ks = cow manure 4.8 kg polybag-1; Ka = chicken manure 4.8 kg polybag-1, each treatment was repeated three times.     The results show that, the interaction between the type of plant growth regulator and the type of manure had a significant effect on the variable total weight of plant fresh fruit-1, and the weight of fresh fruit-1 fruit. The highest total weight of plant-1 fruit was shown by the combination treatment of Atonik ZPT with chicken manure (KaGa) which is 546.67 g or increased by 50.46% compared to the combination of KaGg treatment which is equal to 363.33 g.      The treatment of the type of growth regulating agent has a very significant effect on the variable number of fruit plants-1, plant fruit length-1 and weight of fruit-1 fresh fruit. The treatment of ZPT Atonik gives the highest fruit-1 fresh fruit weight which is equal to 349.63 g of fruit or increased by 23.53% compared to the treatment of ZPT Gibgro which gives the lowest value of 263.81 g. The treatment of the single effect of manure has a significant effect on all observed results variables.

Plants of the cucumber cv. Farbio (all-female) were planted on 13 or 27 December, 10 or 24 January and grown at 3 minimum night temperatures, 12, 16 or 20 deg C from planting until 1 April. Node number/stem increased as the night temperature fell. Internodes were longer with later planting and on plants on inner rather than outer rows; these responses could not be related to light intensity alone. The number of flowers/stem was determined by the number of nodes bearing flowers and the number of flowers/node. More flowers/node occurred towards the top of the plant and late planting increased flowering at all nodes; the night temperature had little effect on numbers but these were highest at 16 deg . Earliness to flower of the first flowers/axil and the intensity of flowering both rose with temperature. Flowering was delayed only slightly by later planting.

Three American cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) hybrids namely Lot Number (EM 285), labeled number 1, Hybrid super Green F1, labeled number 2 and Hybrid Top CAEEN F1, labeled number 3 were studied. Seeds of these hybrids were exposed to four frequencies of electric current (0, 1, 2, 2.5 ) amber(Am.) for 5 minutes and four periods of exposure for ultra-violate rays (UV) at 224 nanometer (nm) for (0,30,60 and 90) second. The treated seeds were sown on 2010 in open field that prepared and fertilized. The effect of electronic current Am and UV on the production of these hybrids was studied. Flowers number/ plant were recorded after 35 days of sowing; length, radius and weight of fruit were recorded after 46 days of sowing. Results showed significant differences between the hybrids in the studied parameters. Hybrid 3 showed a significant increase compared with hybrids 1 and 2 since it gave the highest number of flowers (19.97 flowers. Plant-1), tallest fruit length and radius of fruit (14.09 and 7.93 cm.fruit-1 respectively) and highest fruit weight 46.97 gm.fruit-1. While hybrid 2 gave 16.72 flower.plant-1, 10.35 cm.fruit-1, 5.72.fruit-1 cm (length and radius of fruit respectively ) and 30.2 g.fruit-1.The results also indicated a significant interaction between electric current and UV in all studied parameters. The 2 Am frequency and 60 sec of UV exposure gave highest flowers number (24.09 flower. plant-1) with an increase 85.16% compared with 2.5 Am frequency and 90 sec. of UV exposure. The results also showed a significant interaction between hybrids, electric current and UV. Hybrid 3 treated with 2 Am and 60 sec exposure gave highest fruit weight 86.33gm.fruit-1 with a significant increase for all tri- interactions.

Twelve exotic cultivars of cucumber (Cucumis sativus) were grown to assess the presence of variability for desired traits and amount of variation for different parameters. Genetic parameters, correlations, partial correlation and regressions were estimated for all the traits. Analysis of variance revealed significant differences among entries for all the characters. The estimates of genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) and phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) were high for yield per plant, fruits per plant, fruit weight and fruit length. Broad sense heritability estimates for various traits ranged from 42.26 to 89.55%. Fruit yield per plant showed high significant positive correlation with fruits per plant, fruit weight, flesh thickness, fruit diameter and leaves per plant. Partial correlation was significant for fruits per plant and indicated these traits contributed over 70% to total fruit yield. By variability, correlation and regression analysis it was concluded that more fruits per plant and more fruit weight are major yield contributing factors in selecting high yielding cucumber cultivars.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjpbg.v25i1.17008

A crop of European cucumbers (Cucumis sativus L. ’Corona’) was grown under supplementary lighting (HPS) from 12 Mar. 1987 to 31 Jan. 1988. The flowering, as well as fruit development and production of unproductive flowers was studied using four pruning methods, for winter and summer crops. Pruning method 1 resulted in 12–14 fruit on the main stem. Pruning method 2 lengthened production on short secondary suckers and resulted in 18–20 fruit. Pruning method 3 was used to produce 18–20 fruit on the main stem and on a long secondary sucker growing high up on the plant. Pruning method 4 lengthened production on the main stem, which was made to rest on supporting structures. Our results show that the flowering and fruit production rates are closely related. In summer, the flowering and fruit maturation is shortened and the proportion of marketable fruit is increased. The four pruning methods examined allow good control of spontaneous abortions and a high proportion of marketable fruit, which means a high percentage of productive flowers. However, method 2 was more productive with 4.8 and 6.2 fruit wk−1, respectively, for winter and summer crops.Key words: Cucumis sativus, pruning, supplementary lighting, HPS, cucumber (European)
