Microbiota of grapevine woody tissues with or without esca-foliar symptoms in northeast Spain
(Firenze University Press, 2018-07-20)
Grapevine Trunk Diseases (GTDs), particularly esca, are major concerns in Spain. This study characterized the fungal and bacterial communities in a 30-year-old ‘Cabernet Sauvignon’ vineyard in Catalonia, ...
Labeling of Monilinia fructicola with GFP and Its Validation for Studies on Host-Pathogen Interactions in Stone and Pome Fruit
(MDPI, 2019-12-11)
To compare in vivo the infection process of Monilinia fructicola on nectarines and apples
using confocal microscopy it is necessary to transform a pathogenic strain with a construct expressing
a ...
The high-quality draft genome of peach (Prunus persica) identifies unique patterns of genetic diversity, domestication and genome evolution
(Nature Research, 2013-03-24)
Rosaceae is the most important fruit-producing clade, and its key commercially relevant genera (Fragaria, Rosa, Rubus and Prunus) show broadly diverse growth habits, fruit types and compact diploid g ...
Insights into olive fruit surface functions: A comparison of cuticular composition, water permeability, and surface topography in nine cultivars during maturation
(Frontiers Media, 2019-11-19)
Olive (Olea europaea L.) growing has outstanding economic relevance in Spain, the
main olive oil producer and exporter in the world. Fruit skin properties are very relevant
for fruit and oil quality, ...
Discovering consensus genomic regions in wheat for root-related traits by QTL meta-analysis
(Nature Research, 2019-07-22)
Root system architecture is crucial for wheat adaptation to drought stress, but phenotyping for root traits in breeding programmes is difficult and time-consuming owing to the belowground characteristics ...
Dissecting the old Mediterranean durum wheat genetic architecture for phenology, biomass and yield formation by association mapping and QTL meta-analysis
(Public Library of Science, 2017-05-25)
Association mapping was used to identify genome regions affecting yield formation, crop phenology and crop biomass in a collection of 172 durum wheat landraces representative of the genetic diversity ...
Integrated QTL detection for key breeding traits in multiple peach progenies
(BMC, 2017-06-06)
Background: Peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) is a major temperate fruit crop with an intense breeding activity.Breeding is facilitated by knowledge of the inheritance of the key traits that are often ...
MAGGnet: An international network to foster mitigation of agricultural greenhouse gases
(Taylor and Francis, 2016-05-31)
Research networks provide a framework for review, synthesis and systematic testing of theories by multiple scientists across international borders critical for addressing global-scale issues. In 2012, ...
Genetic Dissection of the Seminal Root System Architecture in Mediterranean Durum Wheat Landraces by Genome-Wide Association Study
(MDPI, 2019-07-09)
Roots are crucial for adaptation to drought stress. However, phenotyping root systems
is a difficult and time-consuming task due to the special feature of the traits in the process of being
analyzed. ...
