Cucurbita palmata is a species of flowering plant in the squash family known by the common names coyote melon and coyote gourd. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is similar to Cucurbita californica , Cucurbita cordata , Cucurbita cylindrata , and Cucurbita digitata and all these species hybridize readily. [ 3 ]
Such plants can arise by spontaneous mutation or by hybridization between diploid and tetraploid individuals of the same or different species. Some species, such as tomato , [ 4 ] pineapple , and cucumber , produce fruit in which there is no seed to be found if not pollinated but will produce seeded fruit if pollination occurs.
