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 ...
QTL Analyses in Multiple Populations Employed for the Fine Mapping and Identification of Candidate Genes at a Locus Affecting Sugar Accumulation in Melon (Cucumis melo L.)
(Frontiers Media, 2017-09-26)
Sugar content is the major determinant of both fruit quality and consumer acceptance in melon (Cucumis melo L), and is a primary target for crop improvement. Nearisogenic lines (NILs) derived from the ...
Light signals generated by vegetation shade facilitate acclimation to low light in shade-avoider plants
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2021-05-07)
When growing in search for light, plants can experience continuous or occasional shading by other plants. Plant proximity causes a decrease in the ratio of R to far-red light (low R:FR) due to the ...
A mutation in the melon Vacuolar Protein Sorting 41prevents systemic infection of Cucumber mosaic virus
(Nature Research, 2017-09-05)
In the melon exotic accession PI 161375, the gene cmv1, confers recessive resistance to Cucumber
mosaic virus (CMV) strains of subgroup II. cmv1 prevents the systemic infection by restricting the ...
Genetic dissection of climacteric fruit ripening in a melon population segregating for ripening behavior
(Springer Nature, 2020-11-01)
Melon is as an alternative model to understand fruit ripening due to the coexistence of climacteric and non-climacteric varieties within the same species, allowing the study of the processes that regulate ...
Unravelling the relationship between adaptation pattern and yield formation strategies in Mediterranean durum wheat landraces
(Elsevier, 2019-05-07)
Understanding the environmental and genetic factors behind the adaptation of landraces to different environments may help design breeding strategies and to promote yield improvement. Based on previous ...
The climate of the zone of origin of Mediterranean durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) landraces affects their agronomic performance
(Springer, 2014-05-07)
The genetic diversity of durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) is held by landraces, which are generally considered to be endemic to a particular region to which they are well adapted. To evaluate the ...
Genetic dissection of the (poly)phenol profile of diploid strawberry (Fragaria vesca) fruits using a NIL collection
(Elsevier, 2015-08-19)
Over the last few years, diploid strawberry (Fragaria vesca) has been recognized as a model species for
applied research of cultivated strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) that is one of the most ...
Global change and viticulture in the Mediterranean region: a case of study in north-eastern Spain
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria, 2014-02-12)
Viticulture in the Mediterranean region has been improved by agronomic methods based on ecophysiological and genetic knowledge of the species and varieties cultivated. Plant growth, yield and quality ...
A matter of smell: The complex regulation of aroma production in melon
(Elsevier, 2024-07-28)
Melon fruit flavor is one of the most valuable traits for consumers. Aroma, formed by volatile organic compounds (VOCs), is a major component of flavor but has been neglected in breeding programs because ...
