Abstract: Plants of the Cucurbitaceae family and seeds of such plants with an androecious phenotype, whereas this sexual type is not natural in the plants, and the use of the plants and of the plant seeds of the invention. Moreover, the nucleic acid sequence responsible for androecy in the plants of the invention and on the polypeptide encoded by the nucleic acid sequence. Finally, methods of identifying the plants and the seeds.
