Melon genome with hundreds of DNA markers has been mapped by researchers from Texas A&amp;M University. <br /> <br /> The results were reported in [[Journal of the American Society of Horticultural Sciences]].&nbsp;<br /> <br /> Texan researchers (Texas AgriLife Research) located genetic markers linked to fruit sugars, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and male sterility, which is useful for developing hybrid varieties. <br /> <br /> They said the genetic map will be helpful for future studies in identifying fruit sweetness, quality, size, shape, and resistance to diseases. <br /> <br />
