An improved assembly and annotation of the melon (Cucumis melo L.) reference genome
(Scientific Reports, 2018-05-24)We report an improved assembly (v3.6.1) of the melon (Cucumis melo L.) genome and a new genome annotation (v4.0). The optical mapping approach allowed correcting the order and the orientation of 21 ... -
An integrated approach for increasing breeding efficiency in apple and peach in Europe
(Horticulture Research, 2018-03-01)Despite the availability of whole genome sequences of apple and peach, there has been a considerable gap between genomics and breeding. To bridge the gap, the European Union funded the FruitBreedomics ... -
Attention sports fans! The far-reaching contributions of bud sport mutants to horticulture and plant biology
(Horticulture Research, 2018-07-15)A bud sport is a lateral shoot, inflorescence or single flower/fruit with a visibly different phenotype from the rest of the plant. The new phenotype is often caused by a stable somatic mutation in a ... -
Cross-incompatibility in the cultivated almond (Prunus dulcis): Updating, revision and correction
(Scientia Horticulturae, 2018-10-24)Most almond cultivars are self-incompatible, and so to obtain a yield they need to be pollinated with cross-compatible cultivars. For an efficient use of these cultivars in growing and breeding, over ... -
Cucurbit Genomics Database (CuGenDB): a central portal for comparative and functional genomics of cucurbit crops
(Nucleic Acids Research, 2018-10-13)The Cucurbitaceae family (cucurbit) includes several economically important crops, such as melon, cucumber, watermelon, pumpkin, squash and gourds. During the past several years, genomic and genetic ... -
Evaluation of biocontrol capacity of Pseudomonas graminis CPA-7 against foodborne pathogens on fresh-cut pear and its effect on fruit volatile compounds
(Food Microbiology, 2018-04-27)The application of microorganisms to control the growth of foodborne pathogens is an alternative to the use of chemical additives. In this work, Pseudomonas graminis CPA-7 was tested as a biocontrol ... -
Genome encode analyses reveal the basis of convergent evolution of fleshy fruit ripening
(Nature Plants, 2018-09-24)Fleshy fruits using ethylene to regulate ripening have developed multiple times in the history of angiosperms, presenting a clear case of convergent evolution whose molecular basis remains largely ... -
Genotyping by Sequencing in Almond: SNP Discovery, Linkage Mapping, and Marker Design
(G3, 2017-11-15)In crop plant genetics, linkage maps provide the basis for the mapping of loci that affect important traits and for the selection of markers to be applied in crop improvement. In outcrossing species ... -
High-density multi-population consensus genetic linkage map for peach
(PLOS ONE, 2018-11-21)Highly saturated genetic linkage maps are extremely helpful to breeders and are an essential prerequisite for many biological applications such as the identification of marker-trait associations, mapping ... -
Identification of a new allele of the Dw gene causing brachytic dwarfing in peach
(BMC Research Notes, 2018-06-14)Objective Peach brachytic dwarfism determined by Dwarf gene (Dw) is an undesired trait segregating in some peach breeding programs. Recently, a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mutation in the ... -
QTL mapping of melon fruit quality traits using a high-density GBS-based genetic map
(BMC Plant Biology, 2018-12-04)Background Melon shows a broad diversity in fruit morphology and quality, which is still underexploited in breeding programs. The knowledge of the genetic basis of fruit quality traits is important for ... -
Survey of over 4, 500 monumental olive trees preserved on-farm in the northeast Iberian Peninsula, their genotyping and characterization
(Scientia Horticulturae, 2017-12-29)Inventorying, characterising and conserving on-farm ancient olive trees is a priority for safeguarding their genetic, natural and agricultural value and for protecting ancient genotypes threatened with ... -
Target-site mutations (AChE and kdr), and PSMO activity in codling moth (Cydia pomonella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)) populations from Spain
(Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 2018-02-23)Codling moth,Cydia pomonella(L.) is a key pest of global importance that affects apple fruit production andwhose populations have developed resistance to insecticides in many apple production areas. In ... -
The Evolutionary Consequences of Transposon-Related Pericentromer Expansion in Melon
(Genome Biology and Evolution, 2018-06-23)Abstract Transposable elements (TEs) are a major driver of plant genome evolution. A part from being a rich source of new genes and regulatory sequences, TEs can also affect plant genome evolution ...
