Uncovering the genetic basis for quality traits in the Mediterranean old wheat germplasm and phenotypic and genomic prediction assessment by cross-validation test
(Frontiers Media, 2023-01-27)
The release of new wheat varieties is based on two main characteristics, grain yield and quality, to meet the consumer’s demand. Identifying the genetic architecture for yield and key quality traits has ...
Mapping Cucumber Vein Yellowing Virus Resistance in Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) by Using BSA-seq Analysis
(Frontiers Media, 2019-12-03)
Cucumber vein yellowing virus (CVYV) causes severe yield losses in cucurbit crops across Mediterranean countries. The control of this virus is based on cultural practices to prevent the presence of its ...
Woolly apple aphid Eriosoma lanigerum Hausmann ecology and its relationship with climatic variables and natural enemies in Mediterranean areas
(Cambridge University Press, 2014-10-22)
A multilateral approach that includes both biotic and climatic data was developed to detect the main variables that affect the ecology and population dynamics of woolly apple aphid Eriosoma lanigerum ...
Post petal fall applications of gibberellins improve fruit set on pear
(Elsevier, 2019-03-30)
Commercial pear production has become increasingly difficult over the last decade, with low fruit set being one of the main factors leading to poor yield of pear orchards. The use of gibberellins to ...
AKFruitYield: Modular benchmarking and video analysis software for Azure Kinect cameras for fruit size and fruit yield estimation in apple orchards
(Elsevier, 2023-10-06)
AKFruitYield is a modular software that allows orchard data from RGB-D Azure Kinect cameras to be processed for fruit size and fruit yield estimation. Specifically, two modules have been developed: i) ...
Acidification of the culture medium as a strategy to control endophytic contaminations in Prunus spp. rootstocks cultured in GreenTray TIS bioreactor
(Elsevier, 2021-08-20)
Overgrowth of endophytes in some in vitro cultures may disrupt the normal shoot tip growth and proliferation, being necessary to obtain endophytes-free cultures to achieve a normal plant micropropagation ...
Shape, firmness and fruit quality QTLs shared in two non-related strawberry populations
(Elsevier, 2021-07-29)
The cultivated strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) is an octoploid species (2n = 8x = 56), appreciated widely for its fruit. There have been very few studies on fruit quality traits, which are known to be ...
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 ...
Genetic regulation of volatile production in two melon introgression line collections with contrasting ripening behavior
(Oxford University Press, 2024-01-16)
The importance of melon aroma in determining fruit quality has been highlighted in recent years. The fruit volatile profile is influenced by the type of fruit ripening. Non-climacteric fruits contain ...
Ethylene and abscisic acid play a key role in modulating apple ripening after harvest and after cold-storage
(Elsevier, 2022-03-19)
An autocatalytic burst in ethylene production generally accompanies ripening of detached apple fruit. However, if apples are left to ripen attached to the tree, some cultivars, will not experience this ...
