Abstract:

Bush and vine habit accessions and their reciprocal F1s of spaghetti squash (Cucurbita pepo) were compared for various vegetative and reproductive characteristics. Bush habit was dominant to vine. Vine plants produced more leaves, longer internodes, and more male flowers than did bush and F1 plants. Pistillate flowers developed at lower nodes in bush and F1 plants than in vine plants. Vine plants produced as much or more vegetative matter than did bush and F1 plants, but bush and F1 plants produced more fruits and greater yields than did vine plants. © 1989 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
