The studies have been carried out at the Faculty of Horticulture Bucharest, in solarium conditions, using the
cucumbers hybrid cornichon type ‘Mirabelle’ F1, a parthenocarpic hybrid with 100% female flowers. It is very
early-maturing one, very productive, with uniform fruits, pleasant and balanced taste, cultivated both for fresh
consumption and for conservation. The hybrid has a good resistance to diseases such as Cladosporium
cucumerinum, Cucumber mosaic virus and Sphaerotheca fuliginea.
