Özet

An experiment was conducted during the spring seasons of 1999 and 2000 to study correlations between early-appearing characteristics such as cotyledon width, length, index, seed weight and agronomic performance characteristics such as fruit diameter, length, index, and weight of 31 dihaploid cantaloupe melon (Cucumis melo L. var cantaloupensis Naudin) and also correlation between cotyledon index and fruit index. A significant positive correlation was observed between cotyledon length, and fruit length, fruit weight and 100-mature seed weight with fruit weight. A relatively lower correlation was determined between cotyledon width, and fruit diameter and fruit weight. The cotyledon index was positively correlated with fruit index. There was a low positive correlation between hypocotyle length and internode length, while hypocotyle length was positively correlated with plant length.
