Genetic architecture and genomic predictive ability of apple quantitative traits across environments
(Oxford University Press, 2022-02-19)
Implementation of genomic tools is desirable to increase the efficiency of apple breeding. Recently, the multi-environment apple reference population (apple REFPOP) proved useful for rediscovering loci, ...
PLANT UNCOUPLING MITOCHONDRIAL PROTEIN 2 localizes to the Golgi
(Oxford University Press; American Society of Plant Biologists, 2023-10-11)
Mitochondria act as cellular hubs of energy transformation and metabolite conversion in most ukaryotes. Plant mitochondrial electron transport chains are particularly flexible, featuring components that ...
Mutations in CmVPS41 controlling resistance to cucumber mosaic virus display specific subcellular localization
(Oxford University Press, 2022-12-17)
Resistance to cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) in melon (Cucumis melo L.) has been described in several exotic accessions and is controlled by a recessive resistance gene, cmv1, that encodes a vacuolar protein ...
Modulating climacteric intensity in melon through QTL stacking
(Oxford University Press, 2022-06-03)
Fruit ripening is one of the main processes affecting fruit quality and shelf life. In melon there are both climacteric and non-climacteric genotypes, making it a suitable species to study fruit ripening. ...
Linking sensory and proton transfer reaction–mass spectrometry analyses for the assessment of melon fruit (Cucumis melo L.) quality traits
(Springer, 2020-05-05)
Sixty-seven samples of ten melon types (Cucumis melo L.) were evaluated to determine the relationship between their quality traits: sensory attributes, pH, soluble solids, and volatile organic compounds. ...
Elucidating compositional factors of maize cell walls contributing to stalk strength and lodging resistance
(Elsevier, 2021-03-19)
Lodging is one of the causes of maize (Zea mays L.) production losses worldwide and, at least, the resistance to stalk lodging has been positively correlated with stalk strength. In order to elucidate ...
QTL Analyses in Multiple Populations Employed for the Fine Mapping and Identification of Candidate Genes at a Locus Affecting Sugar Accumulation in Melon (Cucumis melo L.)
(Frontiers Media, 2017-09-26)
Sugar content is the major determinant of both fruit quality and consumer acceptance in melon (Cucumis melo L), and is a primary target for crop improvement. Nearisogenic lines (NILs) derived from the ...
Phenotypic and molecular selection of a superior Solanum pennellii introgression sub-line suitable for improving quality traits of cultivated tomatoes
(Frontiers Media, 2019-02-22)
The Solanum pennellii Introgression Line (IL) population can be exploited to identify favorable alleles that can improve yield and fruit quality traits in commercial tomato varieties. Over the past few ...
Inheritance of Fruit Red-Flesh Patterns in Peach
(MDPI, 2023-01-14)
Fruit color is an important trait in peach from the point of view of consumer preference, nutritional content, and diversification of fruit typologies. Several genes and phenotypes have been described ...
GenoDrawing: An Autoencoder Framework for Image Prediction from SNP Markers
(American Association for the Advancement of Science; Nanjing Agricultural University, 2023-11-03)
Advancements in genome sequencing have facilitated whole genome characterization of numerous plant species, providing an abundance of genotypic data for genomic analysis. Genomic selection and neural ...
