| Abstract: | Ecballium elaterium (L.) A. Rich. (Cucurbitaceae), is a wild Mediterranean medicinal plant which has been described to thrive in drastic environmental conditions. In one study, it has been described to be frost-tolerant as compared to other wild species of the Cucurbitaceae family. This study was conducted on E. elaterium wild stocks growing in Malta (Central Mediterranean), on several soil types in order to determine the soil conditions ideal for the growth of this disease-resistant wild species. |
