Abstract:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This study was conducted at GCSAR-Swaida research center (Hout station) during the season 2018-2019, to evaluate six melon inbred lines P1(104)\u060c P2(106)\u060c P3(108)\u060c P4(113)\u060c P5(116) and P6 (118) and their 30 F1<\/sub> hybrids produced by complete diallel mating design, using RCBD with four replications. for estimate the general combining ability (GCA) effects for each parents, and the specific combining ability (SCA) for hybrids and their reciprocal, in addition to evaluate the broad and narrow sense heritability for some fruit quality traits of melon (fruit pulp thickness, dry matter, total soluble solids, total sugar, monosaccharaides, disaccharides, carotenoids, vitamin C).\u00a0 The variance of GCA and SCA were significant for all studied traits, indicating the importance of additive and non-additive effects in the inheritance of these traits. The parent P5(116) showed positively significant and desirable general combining ability effects for the traits of carotenoids and sweetness of the fruits, and the parent P4(113) for the traits of the total sugars and disaccharides. The hybrids P1\u00d7P6, P2\u00d7P3 and P2\u00d7P4 showed positive specific combining ability effects for monosaccharaides, and the hybrids P1\u00d7P2 and P2\u00d7P5 for total sugars and monosaccharaides, and the hybrids P3\u00d7P5,P4\u00d7P5 and P5\u00d7P6 for disaccharides, and P1\u00d7P5 hybrid for the fruit content of carotenoids, and P1\u00d7P4 and P2\u00d7P3 hybrids for the fruit content of vitamin C, and four hybrids showed positively significant reciprocal effects for dry matter trait. The GCA\/SCA showed that the non-additive gene action effects controlled the inheritance of all studied traits. The Estimates of the broad sense heritability was high in all traits. While the narrow sense heritability was an intermediate estimate for fruit content of carotenoids and total soluble solids.<\/span><\/p>\n
