SCOPE14 Derived from OPE-14 Yielded a Single DNA Band at 541 Bp, While SCAPB05 Derived from APB-05, Yielded a Single DNA Band at 1,046 Bp, Respectively.

Furthermore, Results of SCAR Analysis in Diverse Melons Showed SCAPB05 Primers Obtained a Single 1,046 Bp Linked to <em>Creb-2</em> in Resistant Cultivars Sanuki-Shirouri and Kohimeuri. However, SCOPE14 Failed to Detect <em>Creb-2</em> in Diverse Melons. Results of This Study Revealed That SCAR Analysis Not Only Confirmed Melons That Had Been Clearly Scored for Resistance to CMV-B2 by RAPD Markers, But Also Clarified the Ambiguous Resistance Results Obtained by the RAPD markers.</span></strong></p> <p class="MsoBodyText2" style="line-height:10.8pt;"><strong><span style="font-size:9pt;"> </span></strong></p> <p class="MsoBodyText2" style="margin-left:58.1pt;text-Indent:-58.1pt;line-height:10.8pt;"><strong><span style="font-size:9pt;"><span>      </span></span></strong><span style="font-size:9pt;">Key Words: <em>Cucumis melo</em> L., <em>Creb-2</em>, RAPD, SCAR<strong></strong></span></P&gt;.
