`PMR Delicious 51' is a new and improved version of the `Delicious 51' eastern type melon (Cucumis melo L.). It was developed in the Department of Plant Breeding at the Cornell University Agricultural Experiment Station in Ithaca, N.Y. It is well adapted for northeastern U.S. conditions and shows potential for good adaptation in the northwest. It is well suited for home gardeners, market gardeners, and commercial growers who want to grow an open-pollinated (OP) melon. `PMR Delicious 51' has excellent resistance to powdery mildew races 1 and 2 (Podosphaera xanthi) and resistance to fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis) race 2.

1. A virus causing mottle and blistering in leaves of Cucumis melo var. Smith Perfect was isolated from an experimental planting at Río Piedras, P.R., in 1958. Its host range, dilution end-point, thermal inactivation, resistance to freezing, and serological similarity with a severe strain of squash-mosaic virus from Wisconsin (SSV) indicated that it belonged in the squash-mosaic virus group. 2. The studies reported above, as well as tests performed on samples from commercial and experimental cucurbit plantings in Puerto Rico during 1960-62, show that at least three cucurbit viruses are present in Puerto Rico. These are: Cucumber-mosaic virus, squash-mosaic virus, and watermelon-mosaic virus.
