Abstract: In this article is given the results of experiment of the patisson cultivation in the climatic conditions of

Uzbekistan, planting in different times, growth, development and yield capacity, and the influence of weather.

Patison – an annual plant belonging to the gourd plant family, usually grows as a shrub, in rare cases it is in

the form of a whip. The stem is straight, faceted, rigidly cyst, shortened between the nodes. The length of the

crooked stem is 30-60 cm. The product is oval in the form of a plate and a bell, the color is white or dark

yellow. It is an early maturing variety of the pumpkin family. The period between growth and harvest is 40-

50 days. According to the results of the study, we achieved high yields in the cultivation of varieties Solnishko

and Fonarik, Letayushaya tarelka

1 INTRODUCTION

Vegetables are the most valuable food product and

are the main supplier of carbohydrates, vitamins,

essential oils, mineral salts and phytoncides necessary

for the normal functioning of the human body.

According to the FAO, “belonging to the pumpkin

family, in the production of cuccini and patisson fruits

in China (7,2 mln. t,), India (4,9 mln. t.), Ukraine

(1,27 mln. t.), Russia (1,128 mln. t), USA (1,05 mln.

t.) and Iran (0,9 mln. t.) are grown on a large scale in

these countries”. In Uzbekistan, the total area of

patisson cultivation in 2020 was 20 hectares, in 2022

the total area of patisson cultivation was 34 hectares,

the gross yield is 512 tons and the yield is 10,1 t/ha.

There is a lot of attention paid to patisson when

expanding the types of vegetables for the

consumption of the population, obtaining and

consuming products in the spring-summer-autumn

periods (Azimov et al., 2002; Belik, 1992).

In order to expand the range of patisson varieties

in the world, as well as to provide raw materials to

food and processing enterprises, research works are

underway in the USA, Italy, France, China, India,

Japan and Russia, to create compact lashes, varieties

with patisson fruits of various colors and shapes, as

well as on the technology of growing their fruits.

In Uzbekistan, scientific achievements in the field of

vegetable growing, in particular new varieties with

high complex value, and improved agro-technologies

are being applied to increase the income of

agroclusters, farmers, peasants and private

households, and the production volume of processing

enterprises. Despite this, comprehensive scientific

research on increasing the yield and quality of

patisson has not been carried out in recent years in our

republic, and the existing range of production consists

of foreign (Beliy 13) and local (Zarkokil) varieties. In

the “Development Strategy of New Uzbekistan for

2022-2026” of the Republic of Uzbekistan, “through

intensive development of agriculture on a scientific

basis”, to increase the income of peasants and farmers

by at least 2 times, to bring the annual growth of

agriculture to at least 5%, especially by 2026, the

volume of food products special attention is paid to

7,4 million tons, bringing the processing level to 28%

for fruits and vegetables. In this regard, the expansion

of the assortment of patisson varieties, the selection

of high-yielding varieties and the improvement of the

technology of growing fruits in Uzbekistan is an

actual scientific direction (Dospekhov, 1985;

Alimova et al., 2022).

2 MATERIALS AND METHODS

The following scientists carried out scientific

research works: H.S. Paris (USA) - the study of

morpho-biological and economic characteristics of

patisson in foreign countries, Robert Westerfield

(USA), Rosie Lerner B. (USA), Michael N. Dana

(USA), R.N. Rashmi (India), K. Sato-Nara (Japan),

K. Yuhashi (Japan), K. Higashi (Japan) - selection of

high-yielding varieties and hybrids of patisson, K.

Hosoya (Japan) in growing crops in different planting

periods, V.A. Ludilov, O.V. Chernyavskaya and V.I.

Fatyanov, T.A. Oktyabrskaya, T.E. Lushchits, O.

Ganichkina, V.F. Pivovarov, L.P. Barakhaeva, A.B.

Goncharov, A.A. Kolomiets - in improving the

technology of selection and cultivation of patisson

varieties.

In Uzbekistan, the research works were done on

creating a local variety of patisson by Sh. Jabbarov,

on the selection of varieties, planting period and

development of schemes by N.N. Balashev, M.N.

Kulakova, V.I. Zuev and Kh. Ch. Boriev.

However, in the last 10 years in Uzbekistan,

scientific and research work on improving the

technology of selection and cultivation of patisson

varieties has not been carried out sufficiently

(Alimova et al., 2023).

Therefore: In the selection of samples of patisson

varieties that are promising for cultivation in the main

crop, patisson varieties “Beliy 13” and “Zarkokil”

regionalized in Uzbekistan and 16 varieties belonging

to Russian selection and 1 hybrid were selected for

research, and Beliy 13 variety was taken as a standard

variety:

The scientific novelty of the research is as

follows:

- for the first time in the conditions of the

Tashkent region, in the conditions of the main crops,

valuable economic characteristics of 18 varieties and

hybrids of patisson were determined;

- early harvesting varieties are as follows –

“Kopeyka” and “Groshik” (36-37 days) as well as

“Pyatachok” and “Zolotoy Medalyon” (46,8...58,5

cm) with upright growth and short stem (46,8...58,5

cm) and compact stem width it was determined that

the varieties “Pyatachok” and “Groshik” (61,4...70,5

cm);

- as high yield varieties in main crop cultivation -

Letayushaya tarelka with white fruits (12,2 and 9,8

t/ha); Fonarik with green fruits (15,1 and 12,0 t/ha);

Solnishko varieties with yellow fruits (19,1 and 15,2

t/ha) were identified;

- in the conditions of the main crops, planting of

patisson varieties until the first and second decade of

April has been proven to give high results.

3 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The practical results of the research are as follows: -

in the conditions of the main crop of patisson in the

Tashkent region, early harvesting “Kopeyka” and

“Groshik” (36-37 days) and upright and short-stem

“Pyatachok” and “Zolotoy medalyon” (46,8...58,5

cm) and compact stem width “Pyatachok” and

“Groshik” (61,4...70,5 cm) varieties were selected;

- during the growing season, the largest number of

fruits of the patisson variety was observed in the

“Solnishko” variety (78,1 and 49,8 pieces), and it was

proved that it is possible to obtain them during the

planting period;

- under the conditions of the main crop, it was

determined that the high yield was in “Letayushaya

tarelka” (12,2 t/ha), “Fonarik” (15,1 t/ha), and

“Solnishko” (19,1 t/ha) varieties.

The number of male flowers was greater than the

number of female flowers in all studied patisson

variety plants. The quantitative ratio of the number of

female and male flowers was found to be low in

Pyatachok (1:1,2) and Cherepakha (1:1,5) varieties.

This was considered to be of great importance in

obtaining a high-quality harvest from the patisson

plant.

Determination of High-Yielding Varieties in the Conditions of Growing the Main Crop from Patisson in the Tashkent Region

155

According to analytical data, in 2020, compared

to the Beliy 13 (st) variety, from one hectare of land -

Beliy NLO (9,2 t/ha), Disk (8,2 t/ha), Zontik (6,5

t/ha), Pyatachok (5,1 t/ha); green fruits – Marsianin

(10,2 t/ha), Cherepakha (7,8 t/ha); It was found that

the yellow-fruited - Groshik (6,5 t/ha), Zolotoy

medalyon (6,3 t/ha) and Solnechnyy Zaychik F’1 (9,4

t/ha) hybrids had low productivity.

In 2021, due to chronic rainfall in April-May, the

yield of patisson variety samples was slightly lower

than Beliy 13 (st) variety – 9,8 t/ha, white-fruited -

Letayushaya tarelka (11,2 t/ha), green-fruited –

Fonarik (14,1 t/ha), Xrustik (10.6 t/ha), Gagat (9,2

t/ha); Yellow fruits - Solnishko (17,3 t/ha), Kopeyka

(12,2 t/ha), Zarkokil (12.7 t/ha), Monetka (10.0 t/ha)

varieties have a high yield compared to the standard

variety. Nevertheless, from the surveyed hectare,

white fruits - Pyatachok (5,31 t less), Zontik (3,88 t),

Beliy NLO (3,27 t), Disk (2,45 t); green fruit -

Cherepakha (3,27 t), Marsianin (0,82 t), Gagat (0,62

t); low yield was formed in varieties with yellow

fruits - Zolotoy medalyon (4,29 t), Groshik (2,45 t)

and hybrid Solnechnyy Zaychik F'1 (1,43 t).

On the contrary, in 2022, due to the hot spring

season, the yield per hectare of the studied patisson

varieties was higher. In this case, one hectare of white

fruit - Letayushaya tarelka (13,3 t), green fruit -

Fonarik (16,1 t), Xrustik (12,4 t), Gagat (12,0 t); with

yellow fruits - Solnishko (20,0 t), Kopeyka (14,7 t),

Zarkokil (14,5 t) varieties are higher by 8,6-0,64 tons

per hectare compared to the standard Beliy 13 (11,4

t/ha) variety if it formed a crop, the productivity of

white fruits is less than 5,28-0,18 tons per hectare -

Pyatachok (4,87 t),

Zontik (3.44 t), Disk (1,60 t), Beliy NLO (0,99t);

green fruits – Cherepakha (3,03 t), Marsianin (0,79 t);

with yellow fruits - Zolotoy medalyon (5,28 t),

Groshik (3,64 t), Monetka (0,18 t) and Solnechnyy

Zaychik F'1 (2,62 t) hybrid varieties.

According to the results of the research, when

choosing patisson variety samples as the main crop,

the highest yield from one hectare is Letayushaya

tarelka variety with white fruit – 12,2 t; Fonarik

variety with green fruits – 15,1 t; the yellow-fruited

variety - Solnishko - was 19,1 t, while the lowest

productivity was in the white-fruited Pyatachok

variety (5,4 t/ha); Cherepakha variety with green

fruits (7,6 t/ha); the yellow-fruited Zolotoy medalyon

variety (6,0 t/ha).

When the fruit size was analyzed according to the

Interstate standard “GOST 34324-2017. Patissony

svejie. Technicheskie usloviya”, the total yield of the

studied patisson variety samples, accordingly, to the

fruit diameter of Beliy 13 (st) variety was 50 mm –

6,36 t (from the total harvest), 70 mm – 2,6 t and 100

mm – 1,59 t.

4 CONCLUSIONS

1. From the samples of the patisson varieties from

the main crop conditions, it was determined that

Kopeyka (36 days) and Groshik (37 days) are early

varieties.

2. The highest productivity under the conditions

of the main crop is Letayushaya tarelka (12,2 t/ha);

Fonarik (15,1 t/ha); Solnishko (19,1 t/ha) and the

lowest productivity - Pyatachok (5,4 t/ha);

Cherepakha (7,6 t/ha); The highest productivity of

Zolotoy medalyon (6,0 t/ha) under repeated crop

conditions is Letayushaya tarelka (9,8 t/ha); Fonarik

(12,0 t/ha); Solnishko (15,2 t/ha) and the lowest

productivity was in Pyatachok (4,4 t/ha); Cherepakha

(6,1 t/ha); Zolotoy medalyon (4,8 t/ha) varieties.

3. In the main crop conditions, the ratio of

patisson variety samples to the total yield by fruit size

is 50 mm – 13,56 t in Solnishko variety, 70 mm – 3,82

t and 100 mm – 1,72 t, and the lowest indicator is

proportional to the Zolotoy medalyon variety

respectively was 3,54, 1,62 and 0,84 t.
