In: Mansoura University Journal of Agricultural Sciences 2003.v.28(6)Summary: Five hybrids of muskmelon were evaluated for their vegetative and yield characteristics in addition to their reaction to fusarium wilt disaese caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis. Local commercial cultivar susceptible to fusarium wilt was also growing for comparison. The experiments were carried out in .commercial .fields naturally infested with F. o..f. sp. melonis at Kantar Shark (Ismailia Governorate) during autumn season of 200012001 and 200112002 and in a pathogen free field at EI-Arish (North Sinai Governorate). which showed no previous problems with wilt disease of melon. Vascular wilt is a sort of disease could not easily controlling this disease. Growth characters, fruit yield, disease incidence and severity were reported. Results showed that high disease incidence and severity were recorded in Kantara Shark infested soil on the susceptible cultivar Shahd Eldokki and GaUa, Vicar and Ideal hybrids. In addition they recorded the lowest early marketable and total yield. On the contrary Primal and Regal hybrids recorded low level of fusarium wilt severity and higher early and total fruit yield specially in pathogen free field of North Sinai Governorate.
