• Characterization of six varieties of Cucumis melo L. based on morphological and physiological characters, including shelf-life of fruit (2004, background): “…C. melo occurred between vars. cantalupensis, reticulatus and inodorus as one group, and the more ‘exotic’ vars. conomon, makuwa, chito, dudaim, agrestis and momordica, as a second group (Stepansky et al., 1999; Staub et al., 2000; Siberstein et al., 1999; Akashi et al., 2002; Zhang & Wang, 1992).”
• Chinese melon (Cucumis melo L.) diversity analyses provide strategies for germplasm curation, genetic improvement, and evidentiary support of domestication patterns (2008, background): “makuwa Makino (cultivated in northern China) and conomon Thunberg (cultivated in southern China), which may have been introduced into China from India ( Akashi et al. 2002; Bates and Robinson 1995; Nakata et al. 2005; Pitrat et al. 2000).”
• Diversity among melon landraces (Cucumis melo L.) from Greece and their genetic relationships with other melon germplasm of diverse origins (2004, background): “Only recently has the genetic diversity of melon been critically assessed using a broad array of informative genetic markers (Akashi et al., 2002; Garcı́a et al., 1998; Mliki et al., 2001; Monforte et al., 2003; Silberstein et al., 1999; Staub et al., 2000; Stepansky et al., 1999).”
• Evaluation of genetic diversity in Turkish melons (Cucumis melo L.) based on phenotypic characters and RAPD markers (2007, background): “There are also a few isozyme markers that may also be affected by environ- ment and post-translational modification, and the use of them is very restricted (Meglic and Staub 1996; Akashi et al. 2002).”
• Diversity among landraces of Indian snapmelon (Cucumis melo var. momordica) (2007, background): “Different types of genetic markers have been employed to assess the genetic diversity in melon viz. isozymes (Akashi et al. 2002; McCreight et al. 2004), restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs; Neuhausen 1992), amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLPs; Garcia-Mas et al. 2000), random…”
• Variation in melon (Cucumis melo) landraces adapted to the humid tropics of southern India (2011, background): “A similar genetic picture of Indian melon germplasm has been portrayed by Akashi et al. (2002) .”
