Integrated QTL detection for key breeding traits in multiple peach progenies
(BMC, 2017-06-06)
Background: Peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) is a major temperate fruit crop with an intense breeding activity.Breeding is facilitated by knowledge of the inheritance of the key traits that are often ...
Effects of Metamitron under Different Relative Humidity Conditions on the Fruit Abscission of Malus domestica Borkh. Cultivars
(MDPI, 2020-11-23)
Metamitron is an apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) fruit thinner that acts by reducing the photosynthetic capacity of trees. Relative humidity may influence thinning efficacy; however, the broadness of ...
‘Honeycrisp’ Bitter Pit Response to Rootstock and Region under Eastern New York Climatic Conditions
(MDPI, 2021-05-14)
There are still unknown factors at play in the causation of bitter pit in ‘Honeycrisp’ as well as in other apple varieties. To investigate some of these factors, we conducted a survey of 34 ‘Honeycrisp’ ...
Insights into olive fruit surface functions: A comparison of cuticular composition, water permeability, and surface topography in nine cultivars during maturation
(Frontiers Media, 2019-11-19)
Olive (Olea europaea L.) growing has outstanding economic relevance in Spain, the
main olive oil producer and exporter in the world. Fruit skin properties are very relevant
for fruit and oil quality, ...
TERRAM and LUX Series: Four Yellow-fleshed and Three White-fleshed Peaches
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2021-08-20)
In Spain, peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] production has experienced an increase of ≈30% during the past 20 years [Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Environment (MAPAMA), 2021]. In 2018, the total ...
Ppe.RPT/SSC‑1: from QTL mapping to a predictive KASP test for ripening time and soluble solids concentration in peach
(Nature Research, 2024-01-17)
Genomic regions associated with ripening time (RPT) and soluble solids concentration (SSC) were
mapped using a pedigreed population including multiple F1 and F2 families from the Clemson
University ...
Impact Of Chill And Heat Exposures Under Diverse Climatic Conditions On Peach And Nectarine Flowering Phenology
(MDPI, 2023-01-29)
The present study aims to generalize cultivar-specific tree phenology responses to winter and spring temperatures and assess the effectiveness of the Tabuenca test and various chill and heat accumulation ...
Carbon stocks and changes in biomass of Mediterranean woody crops over a six-year period in NE Spain
(Springer, 2022-09-15)
Carbon sequestration and storage in biomass is one of the most important measures to mitigate climate change. Mediterranean woody crops can sequestrate carbon in the biomass of their permanent structures ...
The Effects of the Cultivar and Environment on the Phenolic Contents of Hazelnut Kernels
(MDPI, 2022-11-11)
Different climatic conditions are known to affect the synthesis of primary and secondary metabolites. Therefore, the phenolic contents in new growing areas could affect the quality and flavor of hazelnuts. ...
Mediterranean clonal selections evaluated for modern hedgerow olive oil production in Spain
(University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources, 2011-01-01)
Traditional olive oil production is
limited by its high cost, mainly due
to labor expenses for harvesting and
pruning. A new olive planting system
based on hedgerows and harvesting
machines could ...
