- Abstract
Melon is an important commodity in Indonesia and still dominated by imported melons such as Action 434 and Sun Lady. The ‘Kinaya’ cultivar is a crossbreed between ‘Kinanti’ and ‘Sonya’ cultivars. The development of ‘Kinaya’ cultivar as indonesian superior local melon is needed to improve the quality of local melons in order to compete with imported melons. This study examines the stability and uniformity of the phenotypic characters of ‘Kinaya’ F3 and F4 compared to ‘Kinanti’ and ‘Sonya’ to support the development of ‘Kinaya’’ as a superior local melon cultivar. The planting was carried out from August 2019 to October 2020 at Mutihan and Kebondalem Greenhouses, Madurejo Village, Sleman Regency, Special Region of Yogyakarta. The phenotypic data were collected at the Genetics and Breeding Laboratory, Faculty of Biology, Gadjah Mada University. The methods of qualitative and quantitative phenotypic data collection refer to IPGRI. From this research it can be concluded that ‘Kinaya’ F3 melon has different phenotypic characters from ‘Kinanti’, ‘Sonya’ and ‘Kinaya’ F4 melon on stem color, leaf color, flowering age, fruit type, fruit shape, fruit skin color, fruit skin texture and flesh color. ‘Kinaya’ F3 and ‘Kinaya’ F4 cultivars have low phenotypic variation and high character stability (83,72%).
