Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to analyze the economic potential of peatland utilization based on local wisdom by farmers in the Rasau Jaya Village and to analyze the most efficient Cucurbitaceae species to run based on the results of production BEP values, price BEP, ROI, PP, and R/C. The method used in this study is descriptive with a Participatory Rural Appraisal approach, meaning that it involves the active role of the community in obtaining data. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation and interviews using questionnaires. Sample collection was carried out by purposive sampling, with a total sample that met the inclusion criteria of 21 people. Analysis of economic potential data is carried out by calculating farmer receipts and income, while efficiency analysis is carried out by looking at the value of production BEP, price BEP, ROI, PP, and R/C. The results showed that the receipts for pumpkin, cucumber, watermelon, melon, squash and bitter gourd respectively were Rp. 2,375,000, Rp. 2,400,000, Rp. 2,800,000, Rp. 3,000,000, Rp. 2,400,000 and Rp. 2,400,000. Income received successively Rp. 275,000, Rp. 220,000, Rp. 700,000, Rp. 900,000, Rp. 300,000 and Rp. 300,000. Efficiency analysis shows that Cucurbitacea farming is efficient to run, and the most efficient type of Cucurbitacea is melon. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the Cucurbitaceae agricultural business has economic potential and is efficient to run, especially the melon type.

Abstract:
Cucurbitaceae crops play an important role in agricultural production, and they are a primary source of vegetables and fruits for daily needs. The cultivation of cucurbit varieties with excellent agronomic characters has attracted much attention in recent years. As the main source energy organ of Cucurbitaceae, the development of leaves is closely related to yield and environmental response. In this paper, the main research achievements on leaf development of Cucurbitaceae plants were summarized, and the origin, genetic research, gene mapping, and effects on the agronomic and economic characters of the leaf shape and leaf color mutants of Cucurbitaceae were introduced. In addition, the effects of some hormones and environmental factors were reviewed. This work provides a reference point for molecular breeding of leaf development of Cucurbitaceae.

Abstract:
Tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) proteins play numerous roles in plant growth and development by mediating protein–protein interactions in biological systems by binding to peptide ligands. Although genome-wide analyses of the TPR gene family in other species have been performed, its evolution and function in Cucurbitaceae remain unclear. In this study, 144 TPR genes from 11 genomes of eight Cucurbitaceae species with a heterogeneous distribution on the chromosomes were characterized. Based on the homology between Cucurbitaceae and Arabidopsis, the TPR genes were divided into four groups, and the evolutionary relationships of the Benincaceae and Cucurbitaceae tribes were also represented in a phylogenetic tree. Using the ‘DHL92′ genome as a reference, an integrated chromosome map was obtained containing 34 loci, 4 of which were common to the Cucurbitaceae. Cis-regulatory element analysis showed that these elements are essential for melon development and responses to light, phytohormones, and various stresses. CmTPR tissue- and development-specific expression analysis revealed differential expression patterns under normal growth conditions. Furthermore, the CmTPR genes responded to various abiotic stressors. Overall, this study offers insights into the evolutionary history of the TPR gene family in Cucurbitaceae and provides valuable information for elucidating the potential role of CmTPR genes during development and under different stresses in melon.

Abstract:
In Mexico, Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a serious health problem, and although the current pharmacological treatments for DM such as insulin and oral hypoglycemics are available, the Mexican population continues to use medicinal plants in the treatment of DM. The antidiabetic properties of the plant species that belong to the Cucurbitaceae family has already been recognized worldwide. Since Mexico is one of the most important centers of diversity of Cucurbitaceae, the present work contributes to the review of the most used species of Cucurbitaceae in the treatment of DM in Mexico. The reviewed species (Cucurbita ficifolia, C. maxima, C. moschata, C. pepo, Ibervillea sonorae, Sechium edule, Citrullus lanatus, Cucumis melo, and C. sativus) revealed that the antidiabetic effects exerted are effective in a number of mechanisms involved in the complex pathogenesis of DM: hypoglycemic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-obesity, protective effects on diverse organs and cells, as well as in the control of dyslipidemias; furthermore, the select species of the Cucurbitaceae family could also be essential components of diets for the control of DM in patients with the disease. Thus, the Cucurbitaceae species selected in the present work represent a source of antidiabetic agents that perhaps establish the bases for novel clinical treatments.

Abstract:
Cucurbitaceae is the fourth most important economic plant family with creeping herbaceous species mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. Here, we described and compared the complete chloroplast genome sequences of ten representative species from Cucurbitaceae. The lengths of the ten complete chloroplast genomes ranged from 155,293 bp (C. sativus) to 158,844 bp (M. charantia), and they shared the most common genomic features. 618 repeats of three categories and 813 microsatellites were found. Sequence divergence analysis showed that the coding and IR regions were highly conserved. Three protein-coding genes (accD, clpP, and matK) were under selection and their coding proteins often have functions in chloroplast protein synthesis, gene transcription, energy transformation, and plant development. An unconventional translation initiation codon of psbL gene was found and provided evidence for RNA editing. Applying BI and ML methods, phylogenetic analysis strongly supported the position of Gomphogyne, Hemsleya, and Gynostemma as the relatively original lineage in Cucurbitaceae. This study suggested that the complete chloroplast genome sequences were useful for phylogenetic studies. It would also determine potential molecular markers and candidate DNA barcodes for coming studies and enrich the valuable complete chloroplast genome resources of Cucurbitaceae.

Abstract:
Cucumber is the most important vegetable crop in the Cucurbitaceae family. Condon usage bias (CUB) is a valuable character of species evolution. However, there is little research on the CUB of cucumber. Thus, this study analyzes the codon usage patterns of cucumber and its relatives within Cucurbitaceae on the genomic level. The analysis of fundamental indicators of codon characteristics shows that it was slightly GC poor, and there was weak codon usage bias in cucumber. We conduct the analysis of neutrality plot, ENC plot, P2 index, and COA indicates that the nucleotide composition, mutation pressure, and translational selection might play roles in CUB in cucumber and its relatives. Among these factors, nucleotide composition might play the most critical role. Based on these analyses, 30 optimal codons were identified in cucumber, most of them ending with U or A. Meanwhile, based on the RSCU values of species, a cluster tree was constructed, in which the situation of cucumber is consistent with the current taxonomic and evolutionary studies in Cucurbitaceae. This study systematically compared the CUB patterns and shaping factors of cucumber and its relatives, laying a foundation for future research on genetic engineering and evolutionary mechanisms in Cucurbitaceae.

Abstract:
Both the calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) and CDPK-related kinases (CRKs) play numerous roles in plant growth, development, and stress response. Despite genome-wide identification of both families in Cucumis, comparative evolutionary and functional analysis of both CDPKs and CRKs in Cucurbitaceae remain unclear. In this study, we identified 128 CDPK and 56 CRK genes in total in six Cucurbitaceae species (C. lanatus, C. sativus, C. moschata, C. maxima, C. pepo, and L. siceraria). Dot plot analysis indicated that self-duplication of conserved domains contributed to the structural variations of two CDPKs (CpCDPK19 and CpCDPK27) in C. pepo. Using watermelon genome as reference, an integrated map containing 25 loci (16 CDPK and nine CRK loci) was obtained, 16 of which (12 CDPK and four CRK) were shared by all seven Cucurbitaceae species. Combined with exon-intron organizations, topological analyses indicated an ancient origination of groups CDPK IV and CRK. Moreover, the evolutionary scenario of seven modern Cucurbitaceae species could also be reflected on the phylogenetic trees. Expression patterns of ClCDPKs and ClCRKs were studied under different abiotic stresses. Some valuable genes were uncovered for future gene function exploration. For instance, both ClCDPK6 and its ortholog CsCDPK14 in cucumber could be induced by salinity, while ClCDPK6 and ClCDPK16, as well as their orthologs in Cucumis, maintained high expression levels in male flowers. Collectively, these results provide insights into the evolutionary history of two gene families in Cucurbitaceae, and indicate a subset of candidate genes for functional characterizations in the future.

Abstract:
Cucurbitaceae is a family of health-promoting plants due to their compounds with beneficial effects. The aim of this study was to analyze, for the first time, the chemical composition, the antioxidant activity and the metal chelating properties of fruit juices obtained from four different species of the Cucurbitaceae family cultivated in Romania, namely Momordica charantia, Cucumis metuliferus, Benincasa hispida and Trichosanthes cucumerina. The samples of juice were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and all the four species displayed high levels of the two triterpenes, oleanolic and ursolic acids, and also in phenolic compounds, including catechin, (−)-epicatechin and gallic acid. The juices demonstrated significant antioxidant activity against the free radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (ranging from 20 to 95%,), a good iron binding ability (ranging from 7.45 ± 0.28% to 86.95 ± 0.97%) and also promising antioxidant potential against the ABTS radical (ranging from 4.97 to 32.60 μETx/mL juice). Our findings raise interesting questions for further research on Cucurbitaceae fruit juices and, consequently, their very good antioxidant potential suggests these fruits should be further explored for their protective effect against oxidative damage. This is the first time the chemical composition and antioxidant activities of fruit juices from these four Romanian Cucurbitaceae varieties have been investigated.

Abstract:
Trichosanthes kirilowii (T. kirilowii) is a valuable plant used for both medicinal and edible purposes. It belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family. However, its phylogenetic position and relatives have been difficult to accurately determine due to the lack of mitochondrial genomic information. This limitation has been an obstacle to the potential applications of T. kirilowii in various fields. To address this issue, Illumina and Nanopore HiFi sequencing were used to assemble the mitogenome of T. kirilowii into two circular molecules with sizes of 245,700 bp and 107,049 bp, forming a unique multi-branched structure. The mitogenome contains 61 genes, including 38 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 20 tRNAs, and three rRNAs. Within the 38 PCGs of the T. kirilowii mitochondrial genome, 518 potential RNA editing sites were identified. The study also revealed the presence of 15 homologous fragments that span both the chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes. The phylogenetic analysis strongly supports that T. kirilowii belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family and is closely related to Luffa. Collinearity analysis of five Cucurbitaceae mitogenomes shows a high degree of structural variability. Interestingly, four genes, namely atp1, ccmFC, ccmFN, and matR, played significant roles in the evolution of T. kirilowii through selection pressure analysis. The comparative analysis of the T. kirilowii mitogenome not only sheds light on its functional and structural features but also provides essential information for genetic studies of the genus of Cucurbitaceae.

Abstract:
Microlia Casey is a genus of small rove beetles from the New World and Australasia. Many species are recorded to be associated with the flowers of Cucurbitaceae, Solanaceae, Asteraceae, and Monimiaceae. In this work, a new species from Brazil associated with flowers of Cayaponia (Cucurbitaceae), Microlia cayaponia Zilberman & Pires-Silva sp. nov., is described and illustrated. Aspects of its natural history are also investigated, with insights on foraging, reproduction, and the supposed impact on the plant and pollinator’s fitness.

Abstract:
Abstract The use of intergenic spacer (IGS) fragments of plant ribosomal DNA (rDNA) for the differ­ entiation between genera and species is tested by cross-hybridization experiments with different IGS probes of two Cucurbitaceae, Cucurbita pepo (zucchini) and Cucumis sativus (cucum ber). Hybridization with cloned fragments of different parts of the IGS of ribosomal DNA exhibit a different degree of conservation within and between the Cucurbitaceae genera. In general, Cucur­ bita species seem to be closer related to each other than the Cucumis species. A repetitive element of the external transcribed spacer (ETS) shows a more genus-specific pattern, reacting only with the respective genera; the region preceding the ETS is conserved between the Cucurbita species but also cross-hybridizes weakly with the Cucumis species. AGC-rich element of the Cucumis sativus IGS (“Cfo-cluster”) is present in small amounts in Cucumis melo (melon) and even less represented in other genera of the Cucurbitaceae.
