Genome-enabled predictions for fruit weight and quality from repeated records in European peach progenies
(BMC, 2017-06-06)
Background: Highly polygenic traits such as fruit weight, sugar content and acidity strongly influence the
agroeconomic value of peach varieties. Genomic Selection (GS) can accelerate peach yield and ...
Transposons played a major role in the diversification between the closely related almond and peach genomes: Results from the almond genome sequence
(Wiley, 2019-09-16)
We sequenced the genome of the highly heterozygous almond Prunus dulcis cv. Texas combining short and long‐read sequencing. We obtained a genome assembly totaling 227.6 Mb of the estimated 238 Mb almond ...
Exploring large-scale gene coexpression networks in peach (Prunus persica L.): a new tool for predicting gene function
(Oxford University Press, 2024-01-02)
Peach is a model for Prunus genetics and genomics, however, identifying and validating genes associated to peach breeding traits is a
complex task. A gene coexpression network (GCN) capable of capturing ...
PERSEUS: an interactive and intuitive web-based tool for pedigree visualization
(Oxford University Press, 2024-02-03)
Pedigree-based analyses’ prime role is to unravel relationships between individuals in breeding programs and germplasms. This is critical information for decoding the genetics underlying main inherited ...
Whole genome comparisons of Fragaria, Prunus and Malus reveal different modes of evolution between Rosaceous subfamilies
(BMC, 2012-04-04)
Background: Rosaceae include numerous economically important and morphologically diverse species.
Comparative mapping between the member species in Rosaceae have indicated some level of synteny. ...
Development and Evaluation of a 9K SNP Array for Peach by Internationally Coordinated SNP Detection and Validation in Breeding Germplasm
(Public Library of Science, 2012-04-20)
Although a large number of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers covering the entire genome are needed to
enable molecular breeding efforts such as genome wide association studies, fine mapping, ...
A first insight into peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] SNP variability
(Springer, 2012-06-10)
Three factors may have reduced the diversity at
both individual gene and whole genome levels in cultivated
peach: its self-compatible mating system, the narrow genetic
basis of most commercial ...
The genome of woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca)
(Nature Research, 2010-12-26)
The woodland strawberry, Fragaria vesca (2n = 2x = 14), is a versatile experimental plant system. This diminutive herbaceous
perennial has a small genome (240 Mb), is amenable to genetic transformat ...
Comparative analysis of rosaceous genomes and the reconstruction of a putative ancestral genome for the family
(BMC, 2011-01-12)
Background: Comparative genome mapping studies in Rosaceae have been conducted until now by aligning
genetic maps within the same genus, or closely related genera and using a limited number of common ...
An integrated approach for increasing breeding efficiency in apple and peach in Europe
(Springer Nature, 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 ...
