Marker-assisted selection (MAS) in stone fruit (Prunus species) breeding is currently difficult to achieve due the polygenic nature of most relevant agronomic traits linked quality. Genotyping by sequencing (GBS), however, provides a large quantity useful data suitable for fine mapping using Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) from reference genome. In this study, GBS was used genotype 272 seedlings three F1 Japanese plum (P. salicina Lindl) progenies derived crossing '98-99' (as common...
The physiology of Prunus fruit ripening is a complex and not completely understood process. To improve this knowledge, postharvest behavior during the shelf-life period at transcriptomic level has been studied using high-throughput sequencing analysis (RNA-Seq). Monitoring fruits analyzed after different ethylene regulator treatments, including 1-MCP (ethylene-inhibitor) Ethrel (ethylene-precursor) in two contrasting selected apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) Japanese plum (P. salicina...
Abstract Alstroemeria is a genus native to South America from which many varieties of ornamental plants have been developed and introduced into the market. Interspecific hybridization followed by embryo rescue has one most common breeding techniques obtain new varieties. This study was aimed at obtaining alstroemeria hybrids through interspecific crosses using novel scented parental lines assessing these hybrids. A total 3669 embryos were rescued, 18 flowering morphologically evaluated....
Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis var. deliciosa (A Chev) Liang et Ferguson) is a sub-tropical vine species from the Actinidiaceae family native to China. This has an allohexaploid genome (from diploid and autotetraploid parents), contained in 174 chromosomes producing climacteric fleshy fruit called kiwifruit. Currently, only small body of transcriptomic proteomic data are available for A. deliciosa. In this low molecular knowledge context, main goal study construct tissue-specific de novo...
Genotyping by sequencing (GBS) provides a large quantity of useful data suitable for the identification single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), facilitating accurate genomic studies in plant species. In this study, GBS-based SNPs were used to characterise 11 Japanese plum cultivars and explore their natural allelic diversity relation most important phenology events (flowering date, ripening date fruit development period) quality traits (weight, shape, skin flesh colour, over chlorophyll...

Abstract Background Kiwifruit [Actinidia deliciosa (A Chev) Liang et Ferguson] is a sub-tropical vine from the Actinidiaceae family native China. This specie has an allohexaploid genome (from diploid and autotetraploid parents) contained in 174 chromosomes producing climacteric fleshy fruit called kiwifruit. Currently there's no too much genomic transcriptomic information about this species. In low molecular knowledge context, main goal of work to construct tissue-specific de novo...

The physiology of fruit ripening is a complex and still an unknown process, that must be completely understood. To improve this knowledge, the postharvest behavior during shelf-life period studied using modern omics tools. Thus, with goal, monitoring apricot Japanese plum cultivars after different phytohormone treatments such as 1-MCP (ethylene-inhibitor) Ethrel (ethylene-precursor) was carried out. Subsequently, transcriptomic analysis most contrasting ‘Goldrich’ ‘Santa rosa’ performed....
Kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa [A. Chev.], C.V. Liang & A. R. Ferguson, 1984) is a perennial plant, with morphologically hermaphroditic and functionally dioecious flowers. Fruits of this species are berries great commercial nutritional importance. Nevertheless, few studies have analyzed the molecular mechanisms involved in sexual differentiation species. To determine these mechanisms, we performed RNA-seq floral tissue at stage 60 on BBCH scale cultivar ‘Hayward’ (H, female) seedling...
