In the laboratory of All-Russian research institute of irrigated vegetable and melon growing of breeding melons there was cultivated a new form of melon with a gynomoecious form and a marker sign - split leaves. A ginomoecious form was genetically controlled and had female flowers with higher saturation than other varieties. It was necessary to solve the problem of evaluating the maternal form by the combining ability with other varieties in order to make a conclusion about its suitability in hybrid seed production. The article presents comparative data on the large-fruited gynomoecious form and its hybrids; it also evaluates the combinational ability of the maternal form against the standard. According to the results of the research, the maternal form of the melon "Gino" and its best hybrid "Ladushka" were transferred to the state variety testing
