Exploring large-scale gene coexpression networks in peach (Prunus persica L.): a new tool for predicting gene function
(Oxford University Press, 2024-01-02)
Peach is a model for Prunus genetics and genomics, however, identifying and validating genes associated to peach breeding traits is a
complex task. A gene coexpression network (GCN) capable of capturing ...
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 ...
Expression QTL (eQTLs) Analyses Reveal Candidate Genes Associated With Fruit Flesh Softening Rate in Peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch]
(Frontiers Media, 2019-12-03)
Significant differences in softening rate have been reported between melting flesh in peach and nectarine varieties. This trait seems to be controlled by several genes. We aimed to identify candidate ...
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 ...
