Abstract
► Pollen tube growth of some incongruous cross combinations in Cucumis spp. was studied. ► Pollen tube growth of these interspecific crosses was promoted under high temperature conditions. ► Fruit set frequency was enhanced in these temperature conditions. ► 32 °C is the threshold temperature for promoting pollen tube growth.
