Cultural appreciation song zhengqing. "Winter Melon": "Cut the yellow flowers in autumn and spring, and first frost exposes the leaves to protect the body. Born in general, you can't laugh, and your belly can accommodate a hundred people. " Historical legend: As for the name of winter melon, it is said that Shennong loved the people like a son and cultivated "square melons", namely, east melons, pumpkins, watermelons and north melons. And ordered them to go their separate ways and settle in their closed places for the benefit of the people. As a result, the south, west and north melons all went to the sealed place, and only the east melon did not obey the distribution, saying that the East China Sea was windy and life was not used to it. Shennong had to let it change places. There was too much wind and sand in the west, the north was afraid of cold, the south was afraid of heat, and finally went to the east. When Shennong saw that the melon changed its mind, he said happily, "East melon, east melon, east is home." Winter melon immediately replied: "It's winter melon, not winter melon. Everywhere is my home. " Shennong said, "There are no melons in winter. You like to call them wax gourd. If you want to be at home all over the world, call it winter melon ★ Winter melon blight Occurrence characteristics: The disease mainly harms the fruit of winter melon. The diseased part of the infected fruit was flooded, and a circle of white mold layer appeared at the junction of the diseased part and the healthy part. When the diseased fruit is cut open, it can be seen that the flesh under the skin of the diseased part is also brown, which leads to the fruit's inverted sac rot in severe cases. Pathogenesis law: The pathogen survives and overwinters in the soil with mycelium and oospores left by diseased residues, and is infected by rain. Warm and humid weather is conducive to disease, and continuous cropping with low humidity is also prone to disease. Control methods: (1) Breeding and changing disease-resistant varieties. (2) After emergence and fruit expansion, spraying drugs regularly or irregularly to prevent diseases. (3) Spraying 70% Kangbo 600 times solution or 70% foscarnet sodium aluminum manganese zinc 400 times solution. Occurrence characteristics of carbon rot of wax gourd: it mainly harms fruits. Large purple-black to dark brown spots appear on infected fruits, which are round to amorphous. In severe cases, the affected parts endanger most fruits and become soft and wrinkled. Careful observation showed that the spots were densely covered with black particles the size of needles, and the dental pulp under the skin turned brown and rotten. After dehydration, the appearance looks like black charcoal, hence the name charcoal rot. This disease is still harmful during storage after harvest. Pathogenic law: The pathogen overwinters in the soil with mycelium and asexual fruiting body, and the endophytic conidia is the primary and re-invaded inoculum, which spreads infection and causes disease with the help of rainwater sputtering. Warm and humid weather or planting environment is beneficial to the disease, and continuous cropping and low wetland are easy to induce the disease. Control method: (1) Select disease-resistant varieties. (2) Prevention and treatment of diseases such as epidemic disease, anthracnose and powdery mildew can basically treat this disease without separate prevention and treatment. (3) Cleaning and disinfecting the pit before storage, and paying attention to controlling the temperature and humidity can reduce the occurrence of this disease during storage.
