Exogenous application of plant hormones affects changes in number, type and percentage of different flower types in melon. The effect of hormones to transform perfect flowers into staminate or pistillate flowers can be used in the production of F1 hybrid seeds of melon. The influence of three plant hormones (ethrel, silver nitrate, and gibberellic acid) on the flowers of five andromonoecious melon cultivars (Chinese muskmelon, Anannas, Fiata, Honeydew and A2-3lb) was evaluated in this study. The used melon varieties had separated perfect and staminate flowers. Experiments were carried out in 2010 and 2011 at the Institute for Vegetable Crops in Smederevska Palanka (Serbia). Effect of hormones was observed on five traits: 1) number of perfect flowers per plant, 2) number of staminate flowers per plant, 3) the total number of flowers (perfect and staminate) per plant, 4) percentage of perfect flowers per plant, and 5) percentage of staminate flowers per plant. Of the used hormones, the strongest influence on the investigated traits had shown ethrel by increasing the number of perfect flowers per plant for 6.2 and reducing the number of male flowers per plant for 22.0, what represents change of 6.67% compared to the control. Perfect flowers after treatment with ethrel had deformed anthers and they were self-sterile, i.e. suitable for hybridization with pollen from other flowers. In relation to the ethrel, treatments with two other hormones, gibberellic acid and silver nitrate, had weaker and opposite effect on the observed melon traits.
