Woodland strawberry axillary bud fate is dictated by a crosstalk of environmental and endogenous factors
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2021-09-01)
Plant architecture is defined by fates and positions of meristematic tissues and has direct consequences on yield potential and environmental adaptation of the plant. In strawberries (Fragaria vesca L. ...
Metabolomic analyses of highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) cultivars revealed mechanisms of resistance to aluminum toxicity
(Elsevier, 2020-12-02)
Aluminum (Al) is an important factor that limits plant growth under acidic soil conditions. However, several
plant species developed distinct mechanisms that limit the damage caused by high Al ...
New insights into flowering date in Prunus: fine mapping of a major QTL in sweet cherry
(Oxford University Press, 2022-02-19)
Flowering date is an important trait in Prunus fruit species, especially for their adaptation in a global warming context. Numerous quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been identified and a major one ...
High-throughput methods to identify male Cannabis sativa using various genotyping methods
(BMC, 2022-11-02)
Background
Cannabis sativa is a primarily dioecious angiosperm that exhibits sexual developmental plasticity. Developmental genes for staminate male flowers have yet to be elucidated; however, there ...
Decreased levels of Thioredoxin o1 influences stomatal development and aperture but not Photosynthesis under non-stress and saline conditions
(MDPI, 2021-01-21)
Salinity has a negative impact on plant growth, with photosynthesis being downregulated partially due to osmotic effect and enhanced cellular oxidation. Redox signaling contributes to the plant response ...
A cryptic variation in a member of the Ovate Family Proteins is underlying the melon fruit shape QTL fsqs8.1
(Springer, 2021-11-25)
Melon cultivars have a wide range of fruit morphologies. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) have been identifed underlying such diversity. This research focuses on the fruit shape QTL fsqs8.1, previously ...
The haplotype-resolved T2T reference genome highlights structural variation underlying agronomic traits of melon
(Oxford University Press, 2023-09-04)
Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is an important vegetable crop that has an extensive history of cultivation. However, the genome of wild and semi-wild melon types that can be used for the analysis of agronomic ...
Fruit Morphology and Ripening-Related QTLs in a Newly Developed Introgression Line Collection of the Elite Varieties ‘Védrantais’ and ‘Piel de Sapo’
(MDPI, 2022-11-15)
Melon is an economically important crop with widely diverse fruit morphology and ripening characteristics. Its diploid sequenced genome and multiple genomic tools make this species suitable to study the ...
Almond population genomics and non-additive GWAS reveal new insights into almond dissemination history and candidate genes for nut traits and blooming time
(Oxford University Press, 2023-09-25)
Domestication drastically changed crop genomes, fixing alleles of interest and creating different genetic populations. Genome-wide
association studies (GWASs) are a powerful tool to detect these alleles ...
Exploring deep learning for complex trait genomic prediction in polyploid outcrossing species
(Frontiers Media, 2020-02-06)
Genomic prediction (GP) is the procedure whereby the genetic merits of untested candidates are predicted using genome wide marker information. Although numerous examples of GP exist in plants and animals, ...
