Mean reproductive success parameters of Cucumis melo var. agrestis for seasons 2 and 3 for the six pollination treatments. T1, free exposure (control, open pollination); T2, non-emasculation, hand self-pollination with pollen from the same hermaphroditic flower; T3, emasculation, hand self-pollination with pollen from hermaphroditic flowers; T4, emasculation, hand self-pollination with pollen from male flowers; T5, emasculation, hand cross-pollination with pollen from hermaphroditic flowers; T6, emasculation, hand cross-pollination with pollen from male flowers. Significant differences among treatments (P ≤ 0·05) are indicated by different letters above the standard error bars.
