Lists of the genes of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. and Nakaio) have been published previously in HortScience, 1976 (40) and in the cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report, 1979(3). 1982(4), 1985(5), 1991(8), 1992(9) and 1995(38). the current list provides an update of the known genes in watermelon. Table 1 of Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) was kindly provided from the GenBank data base by Jeong-Sheop Shin and Sunghan Ok (South Korea).
