A watermelon plant that produces fruit having (i) ultra-firm flesh and/or liquid-retaining flesh and (ii) soluble solids of at least about 6 brix.

Watermelon with improved processing qualities

A watermelon plant that produces fruit having (i) ultra-firm flesh and/or liquid-retaining flesh and (ii) soluble solids of at least about 6 brix. The invention further provides for unique watermelon plants with an ultra-firm flesh phenotype and their progeny. Such plants may comprise an introgressed QTL associated with an ultra-firm flesh phenotype. In certain aspects, compositions, including distinct polymorphic molecular markers, and methods for producing, breeding, identifying, selecting, and the like of plants or germplasm with an ultra-firm flesh phenotype are provided.

Methods and compositions for watermelon with improved processing qualities and firmness

The invention provides methods for producing seeds in watermelon. In one embodiment methods are provided comprising grafting of a seed parent onto a stress tolerant rootstock, pollinating the seed parent with pollen from a pollen donor, and cultivating the seed parent until seed is formed. In specific embodiments, triploid seeds produced by a method of the invention are rendered conspicuously distinguishable from tetraploid seeds, and thus readily selected manually or by an automated machine. Methods for increasing seed yield and/or quality are also provided.

Methods for watermelon plant and seed production

The invention provides seed and plants of the watermelon line designated TSB-146-1170. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of watermelon line TSB-146-1170, and to methods for producing a watermelon plant produced by crossing a plant of watermelon line TSB-146-1170 with itself or with another watermelon plant, such as a plant of another line. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of a plant of watermelon line TSB-146-1170, including the fruits and gametes of such plants.

Methods and compositions for watermelon firmness

The invention provides seed and plants of the watermelon line designated TCS-EJ09137. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of watermelon line TCS-EJ09137, and to methods for producing a watermelon plant produced by crossing a plant of watermelon line TCS-EJ09137 with itself or with another watermelon plant, such as a plant of another line. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of a plant of watermelon line TCS-EJ09137, including the fruits and gametes of such plants.

Watermelon variety TCS-EJ09137

The invention provides seed and plants of the watermelon line designated TCS-146-1901. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of watermelon line TCS-146-1901, and to methods for producing a watermelon plant produced by crossing a plant of watermelon line TCS-146-1901 with itself or with another watermelon plant, such as a plant of another line. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of a plant of watermelon line TCS-146-1901, including the fruits and gametes of such plants.

Watermelon variety TCS-146-1901

The invention provides seed and plants of the watermelon line designated TML-EJ00112. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of watermelon line TML-EJ00112, and to methods for producing a watermelon plant produced by crossing a plant of watermelon line TML-EJ00112 with itself or with another watermelon plant, such as a plant of another line.
