The Handbook of Cucurbits: Growth, Cultural Practices, and
Physiology contains information on cultural practices, nutrition,
and physiological processes of cucurbits under both normal and
stressful conditions. It presents the history and importance of
cucurbit crop production as well as exhaustive information on
growth responses of cucurbits to various environmental conditions
and nutrients. Unlike numerous other books and articles on
cucurbits that exist in relative isolation of each other, this
handbook provides a complete collection of factors on cucurbits. It
addresses issues and concerns related to cucurbits growth,
physiology, cultural practices, diseases, and production. It has
been prepared by many competent and knowledgeable scientists,
specialists, and researchers in agriculture and horticulture from
several countries. It serves as a resource for both lectures and
independent purposes, covering issues related to cucurbits from
planting to production. The book is divided into 11 sections:
Introductory Chapters; Cucurbits Physiological Stages of Growth and
Development I; Cultural Practices of Cucurbits; Cucurbits
Physiological Stages of Growth and Development II; Genetics,
Genomics, and Breeding of Cucurbits; Cucurbits Grafting; Cucurbits
Pathology and Diseases; Weed Control, Pest Control, and Insects of
Cucurbits; Therapeutic and Medicinal Values of Cucurbits; Growth
Responses of Cucurbits under Stressful Conditions (Abiotic and
Biotic Stresses); and Examples of Cucurbits Crop Plants Growth and
Development and Cultural Practices. Each of these sections consists
of one or more chapters to discuss, independently, as many aspects
of cucurbits as possible for that specific topic. Numerous figures
and tables are included to facilitate the comprehension of the
presented material. Hundreds of index words are also included to
further increase accessibility to desired information.
