Syntenic relationships between cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) and melon (C. melo L.) chromosomes as revealed by comparative genetic mapping
(BMC, 2011-08-05)
Background: Cucumber, Cucumis sativus L. (2n = 2 × = 14) and melon, C. melo L. (2n = 2 × = 24) are two
important vegetable species in the genus Cucumis (family Cucurbitaceae). Both species have an Asian ...
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 ...
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, ...
Sequencing of 6.7 Mb of the melon genome using a BAC pooling strategy
(BMC, 2010-11-12)
Background: Cucumis melo (melon) belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family, whose economic importance among
horticulture crops is second only to Solanaceae. Melon has a high intra-specific genetic variation, ...
Genome-wide BAC-end sequencing of Cucumis melo using two BAC libraries
(BMC, 2010-11-05)
Background: Although melon (Cucumis melo L.) is an economically important fruit crop, no genome-wide
sequence information is openly available at the current time. We therefore sequenced BAC-ends ...
An oligo-based microarray offers novel transcriptomic approaches for the analysis of pathogen resistance and fruit quality traits in melon (Cucumis melo L.)
(BMC, 2009-10-12)
Background: Melon (Cucumis melo) is a horticultural specie of significant nutritional value, which belongs to the
Cucurbitaceae family, whose economic importance is second only to the Solanaceae. Its ...
A set of EST-SNPs for map saturation and cultivar identification in melon
(BMC, 2009-07-15)
Background: There are few genomic tools available in melon (Cucumis melo L.), a member of the Cucurbitaceae, despite
its importance as a crop. Among these tools, genetic maps have been constructed ...
Genomics of Ecological Adaptation in Cactophilic Drosophila
(Oxford University Press, 2014-12-31)
Cactophilic Drosophila species provide a valuable model to study gene–environment interactions and ecological adaptation. Drosophila buzzatii and Drosophila mojavensis are two cactophilic species that ...
Thorough Characterization of ETHQB3.5, a QTL Involved in Melon Fruit Climacteric Behavior and Aroma Volatile Composition
(MDPI, 2023-01-13)
The effect of the QTL involved in climacteric ripening ETHQB3.5 on the fruit VOC composition was studied using a set of Near-Isogenic Lines (NILs) containing overlapping introgressions from the Korean ...
Comparative transcriptional profiling analysis of developing melon (Cucumis melo L.) fruit from climacteric and non-climacteric varieties
(BMC, 2015-06-09)
Background: In climacteric fruit-bearing species, the onset of fruit ripening is marked by a transient rise in
respiration rate and autocatalytic ethylene production, followed by rapid deterioration ...
