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 ...
Analysis of the melon (Cucumis melo) small RNAome by high-throughput pyrosequencing
(BMC, 2011-08-03)
Background: Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is a commercially important fruit crop that is cultivated worldwide. The
melon research community has recently benefited from the determination of a complete draft ...
The Evolutionary Consequences of Transposon-Related Pericentromer Expansion in Melon
(Oxford University Press, 2018-06-23)
Abstract
Transposable elements (TEs) are a major driver of plant genome evolution. A part from being a rich source of new genes and regulatory sequences, TEs can also affect plant genome evolution ...
High-density multi-population consensus genetic linkage map for peach
(Public Library of Science, 2018-11-21)
Highly saturated genetic linkage maps are extremely helpful to breeders and are an essential prerequisite for many biological applications such as the identification of marker-trait associations, mapping ...
A deletion affecting an LRR-RLK gene co-segregates with the fruit flat shape trait in peach
(Nature Research, 2017-07-27)
In peach, the fat phenotype is caused by a partially dominant allele in heterozygosis (Ss), fruits from
homozygous trees (SS) abort a few weeks after fruit setting. Previous research has identifed a ...
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 ...
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 ...
Genome and transcriptome analysis of the Mesoamerican common bean and the role of gene duplications in establishing tissue and temporal specialization of genes
(BMC, 2016-02-25)
Background: Legumes are the third largest family of angiosperms and the second most important crop class. Legume genomes have been shaped by extensive large-scale gene duplications, including an ...
A phased genome of the highly heterozygous ‘Texas’ almond uncovers patterns of allele-specific expression linked to heterozygous structural variants
(Oxford University Press, 2024-04-09)
The vast majority of traditional almond varieties are self-incompatible, and the level of variability of the species is very high, resulting in a high-heterozygosity genome. Therefore, information on ...
Whole-Genome Analysis of Diversity and SNP-Major Gene Association in Peach Germplasm
(Public Library of Science, 2015-09-09)
Peach was domesticated in China more than four millennia ago and from there it spread world-wide. Since the middle of the last century, peach breeding programs have been very dynamic generating hundreds ...
