Development and preliminary evaluation of a 90 K Axiom® SNP array for the allo-octoploid cultivated strawberry Fragaria × ananassa
(BMC, 2015-03-07)
Background: A high-throughput genotyping platform is needed to enable marker-assisted breeding in the
allo-octoploid cultivated strawberry Fragaria × ananassa. Short-read sequences from one diploid and ...
High-density mapping suggests cytoplasmic male sterility with two restorer genes in almond x peach progenies
(Oxford University Press, 2015-05-06)
Peach (Prunus persica) and almond (Prunus dulcis) are two sexually compatible species that produce fertile offspring. Almond, a highly
polymorphic species, is a potential source of new genes for peach ...
Comparative transcriptional profiling analysis of developing melon (Cucumis melo L.) fruit from climacteric and non-climacteric varieties
(BMC, 2015-06-09)
Background: In climacteric fruit-bearing species, the onset of fruit ripening is marked by a transient rise in
respiration rate and autocatalytic ethylene production, followed by rapid deterioration ...
Interpreting genotype-by-environment interaction for biomass production in hybrid poplars under short-rotation coppice in Mediterranean environments
(Wiley Open Access, 2015-10-20)
Understanding genotype 9 environment interaction (GEI) is crucial to optimize the deployment of clonal
material to field conditions in short-rotation coppice poplar plantations. Hybrid poplars are grown ...
Daylength, Temperature and Solar Radiation Effects on the Phenology and Yield Formation of Spring Durum Wheat
(Wiley, 2015-07-30)
Future food security will depend on crop adaptation to changing environments. We studied the limitations imposed by daylength, temperature and solar radiation on wheat yield in eight field experiments ...
Use of targeted SNP selection for an improved anchoring of the melon (Cucumis melo L.) scaffold genome assembly
(BMC, 2015-01-22)
Background: The genome of the melon (Cucumis melo L.) double-haploid line DHL92 was recently sequenced, with 87.5 and 80.8% of the scaffold assembly anchored and oriented to the 12 linkage groups, ...
cmv1 is a gate for Cucumber mosaic virus transport from bundle sheath cells to phloem in melon
(Wiley Open Access, 2015-12-09)
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) has the broadest host range among plant viruses, causing enormous losses in agriculture. In melon, strains of subgroup II are unable to establish a systemic infection in the ...
