Abstract

The studies were performed at SCDL BACAU, on a field collection which included a number of 20 varieties, lines and local populations of Cucurbita pepo. Following the improvement works carried out, three of the most stable and homogeneous lines were promoted in the selection field, in comparative and competitive cultures. Validation of the results is sustained by morphological and physiological characterization of selected lines.
