A novel hybrid squash plant, designated YELLOW QUEEN is disclosed. The disclosure relates to the seeds of hybrid squash designated YELLOW QUEEN, to the plants and plant parts of hybrid squash designated YELLOW QUEEN, and to methods for producing a squash plant by crossing the hybrid squash YELLOW QUEEN with itself or another squash plant.

A seed of hybrid squash designated as ‘Renegade’ is disclosed. The invention relates to the seeds of hybrid squash ‘Renegade’, to the plants of hybrid squash ‘Renegade’, to methods for producing a hybrid plant, and to methods for producing other squash lines, cultivars or hybrids derived from the hybrid squash ‘Renegade’.

The present invention provides a novel squash plant having an especially small seed cavity, and a method for producing the squash plant. The present invention provides a method for producing a small seed cavity squash plant that includes developing, from the progeny of an F1 seed obtained by crossing a Cucurbita maxima and a Cucurbita moschata, a small seed cavity squash plant in which the proportion of the volume of the seed cavity relative to the fruit volume is 15% or less, and also provides a small seed cavity squash plant that is a small seed cavity Cucurbita maxima plant having, within the nuclear genome, a gene associated with a small seed cavity trait of a plant of the genus Cucurbita, or a hybrid plant obtained using the small seed cavity Cucurbita maxima plant as a parent, or a progeny of either of these plants.

A novel hybrid squash plant, designated HMX588615 is disclosed. The invention relates to the seeds of hybrid squash designated HMX588615, to the plants and plant parts of hybrid squash designated HMX588615, and to methods for producing a squash plant by crossing the hybrid squash HMX588615 with itself or another squash plant.

The invention discloses an indel molecular marker closely linked with pumpkin photoperiod insensitivity and application of the indel molecular marker, and belongs to the technical field of molecule detection. The indel molecular marker SEQ7593 is located on a tenth chromosome of a Cucurbita moschata, and is 280 bp in size. The nucleotide sequence of the indel molecular marker is shown as SEQ ID NO: 1. The indel molecular marker SEQ7593 can be directly used for creating an assistant breeding system of photoperiod insensitivity character molecular markers. Primer amplification designed according to the Indel molecular marker can be applied to assistant breeding of pumpkin breed improvement molecules in a simple, rapid and high-throughput manner, technical support is provided for pumpkin photoperiod insensitivity molecular breeding, and time for conventional gene positioning is shortened greatly.

A hybrid pumpkin plant, designated FIREBALL is disclosed. The disclosure relates to the seeds of hybrid pumpkin designated FIREBALL, to the plants and plant parts of hybrid pumpkin designated FIREBALL, and to methods for producing a pumpkin plant by crossing the hybrid pumpkin FIREBALL with itself or another pumpkin plant.

A plant or a part thereof, the plant being a Cucurbita pepo hybrid having more than one flower/fruit per node as in Cucurbita pepo subsp. texana, the fruit of the plant having the phenotype of that of Cucurbita pepo subsp. pepo.
