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.

This research is aimet to known the responsed of cucumber plant (Cucumis sativus L.), the good means for the growth and yield of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L) of the hybrid varieties doses of good means. This study uses a randomized block design (RAK) with one factor and 5 replications. The main factors, namely: goat manure. First repeat that: without fertilizer (P0), manure goat 10 ton / ha (P1), manure goat 20 ton / ha (P2), manure goat 30 ton / ha (P3), and the latter is manure goat 40 ton / ha (P4). The parameters observed were plant height, leaf number, fruit weight, fruit length and diameter of the fruit. Data analysis by using analysis of variance (ANOVA), if the effect followed by Least Significant Difference Test (BNT). The results based on the analysis of variance showed that: 1) Treatment of manure goat (P) significantly affected the growth and yield of cucumber plants include all the parameters of observation starting plant height, leaf number, fruit weight, fruit length and fruit diameter. Dose goat manure 40 t / ha is the best concentration to produce the highest average values for all parameters. The lowest value of all parameters are shown on the dose P0 (without manure goat / control).

This study aims to determine the effect of fertilizing nutrients that can increase the growth and yield of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) with hydroponic techniques. The research was conducted at the screen house of the Biotechnology Lab Research and Development Division of PT East West Seed Indonesia, in Benteng Village, Campaka District, Purwakarta Regency. This research was conducted in December 2017 until March 2018. This study used a randomized block design (RBD) with 9 replications. Planting factor is a nutrient solution consisting of N1 enza nutrition, N2 alfesindo nutrition, and N3 ewindo nutrition. Parameters observed were plant height, plant dry weight, fruit length, fruit diameter, number of planted fruit and crop fruit weight. The media used in this study was roasted husk charcoal. The results showed that the response of nutrient solutions was significantly different from observations of plant height, whereas the response of nutrient solutions to observations of dry weight, fruit length, fruit diameter, number of fruit plantations and fruit weight of plantations were not significantly different. The results showed that the best nutritional solution was ewindo nutritional solution.

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)

Theseeds of these hybrids were exposure to four frequencies of electric current 0,1,2 and 2.5 Am for5 minutes and 4 periods of ultra violate rays UV at 254 nm. For 0,30,60 and 90 second. Thesterilized seeds were cultured in MS medium. After 3 weeks apical meristems of seedling wereexcise and cultured in new MS medium and of 5 weeks shoot systems were taken to study theelement content nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, calcium and magnesium in addition toestimate protein percentage. The results showed that hybrid 3 had a significant increase ofelement contents and protein percentage compared with hybrid1 and 2.The interactions betweenhybrid3 and 90 sec. UV exposure showed the highest content of calcium element reached 2.73mg.gm-1 with an increase of 184.37%compared with the control. The interaction between 2.5 Amand 90 sec. UV exposure showed the highest rate of protein reached 15.5%with significantdifferences of all 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

Abstract Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) is an important vegetable crop, rich in vitamins and minerals and eaten fresh as a dessert. Its fruit yield is relatively low, though could be improved through knowledge of character association with it and selection of desirable materials for improvement programmes. Fifteen cultivars of Cucumber were evaluated at two locations (Abeokuta and Ibadan), South West, Nigeria in a randomized complete block design with three replicates in order to determine heritability, correlation, direct and indirect effects of characters on fruit yield. Data collected on agro-morphological characters were subjected to analysis of variance, estimates of heritability, correlation, and path analysis. Significant variations (p <0.05) were observed in the cultivars. High heritability estimates (>90%) was observed for fruit length at both locations. A significant phenotypic and genotypic correlation was observed between fruit yield and fruit weight. Number of days to 50% flowering and fruit width could also be selected directly for improvement of fruit yield in cucumber.
