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 ...
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 ...
Peach allergen Pru p 1 content is generally low in fruit but with large variation in different varieties
(Wiley Open Access, 2021-05-14)
Background: Pru p 1 is a major allergen in peach and nectarine, and the different content in varieties may affect the degree of allergic reactions. This study aimed to quantify Pru p 1 levels in ...
Resynthesis: Marker-Based Partial Reconstruction of Elite Genotypes in Clonally-Reproducing Plant Species
(Frontiers Media, 2020-08-07)
We propose a method for marker-based selection of cultivars of clonally-reproducing plant species which keeps the basic genetic architecture of a top-performing cultivar (usually a partly heterozygous ...
Comparative QTL analysis in peach ‘Earlygold’ F2 and backcross progenies
(Elsevier, 2021-11-17)
Based on detailed maps, DNA sequences and phenotypic data, there is a great deal of information on the genetics and genomics of ‘Earlygold’, a historical peach cultivar from the US. The F2 between ‘Texas’ ...
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 ...
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 ...
Impacts of Use and Abuse of Nature in Catalonia with Proposals for Sustainable Management
(MDPI, 2021-02-02)
This paper provides an overview of the last 40 years of use, and in many cases abuse, of the natural resources in Catalonia, a country that is representative of European countries in general, and ...
Generation of a BAC-based physical map of the melon genome
(BMC, 2010-05-28)
Background: Cucumis melo (melon) belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family, whose economic importance among
horticulture crops is second only to Solanaceae. Melon has high intra-specific genetic variation, ...
Genetic variation, population structure and linkage disequilibrium in peach commercial varieties
(BMC, 2010-07-20)
Background: Peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] is one of the most economically important fruit crops that, due to its
genetic and biological characteristics (small genome size, taxonomic proximity to ...
