To understand the inter-hybridization between Cucumis ssp.plants,we used 150 melon varieties as female parents to cross with Cucumis metuliferus and Cucumis anguria.Only melon accessions V2 and V129 set fruits,but seeds from fruits V2（V129）×C.metuliferus were abortive.A few of seeds from the bottom of fruit V2（V129）×C.anguria were fertile.Sequence-related amplified polymorphism（SRAP）molecular markers were used to analyze the progenies of inter-specific hybridization between C.anguria and melon V129.One pair primer（E14/M2）was found effective in amplification on male parent characteristic bands from the hybrids,suggesting that some DNA exchange had happened between C.anguria and melon V129.This study provided data for analyzing the mechanism of inter-hybridization between Cucumis plants.
