Exploring sources of resistance to brown rot in an interspecific almond × peach population
(Wiley, 2019-02-19)
BACKGROUND: Monilinia spp. are responsible for brown rot, one of the most significant stone fruit diseases. Planting resistant cultivars seems a promising alternative, although most commercial cultivars ...
High-density mapping suggests cytoplasmic male sterility with two restorer genes in almond x peach progenies
(Oxford University Press, 2015-05-06)
Peach (Prunus persica) and almond (Prunus dulcis) are two sexually compatible species that produce fertile offspring. Almond, a highly
polymorphic species, is a potential source of new genes for peach ...
Fine mapping and identification of candidate genes for the peach powdery mildew resistance gene Vr3
(Springer Nature, 2020-11-01)
Powdery mildew is one of the major diseases of peach (Prunus persica), caused by the ascomycete Podosphaera pannosa. Currently, it is controlled through calendar-based fungicide treatments starting at ...
Prunus genetics and applications after de novo genome sequencing: achievements and prospects
(Springer Nature, 2019-04-05)
Prior to the availability of whole-genome sequences, our understanding of the structural and functional aspects of Prunus tree genomes was limited mostly to molecular genetic mapping of important traits ...
Identification of a new allele of the Dw gene causing brachytic dwarfing in peach
(BioMed Central, 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 ...
Inheritance of Fruit Red-Flesh Patterns in Peach
(MDPI, 2023-01-14)
Fruit color is an important trait in peach from the point of view of consumer preference, nutritional content, and diversification of fruit typologies. Several genes and phenotypes have been described ...
Flat Peach SUBLOR and SUBLIM and Flat Nectarine PERLA Series
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2022-08-29)
Flat peach and flat nectarine (Prunus persica L. Batsch.) production in Spain started from local cultivars at marginal sites, mainly in the Ebro Valley and Murcia regions. At the end of the 1990s, the ...
The multi-site PeachRefPop collection: a true cultural heritage and international scientific tool for fruit trees
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2020-07-29)
Plants have evolved a range of adaptive mechanisms that adjust their development and physiology to variable external conditions, particularly in perennial species subjected to long-term interplay with ...
Construction of a collection of introgression lines of “Texas” almond DNA fragments in the “Earlygold” peach genetic background
(Oxford University Press, 2022-03-23)
Peach [Prunus persica L. Batsch] is one of the major temperate fruit tree species, the commercial materials of which have a low level of genetic variability. Almond [P. dulcis (Mill) DA Webb], a close ...
A deletion affecting an LRR-RLK gene co-segregates with the fruit flat shape trait in peach
(Nature Research, 2017-07-27)
In peach, the fat phenotype is caused by a partially dominant allele in heterozygosis (Ss), fruits from
homozygous trees (SS) abort a few weeks after fruit setting. Previous research has identifed a ...
