The amount and structure of genetic diversity in dessert apple germplasm conserved at a European level is mostly unknown, since all studies conducted Europe until now have been performed on regional or national collections. Here, we applied common set 16 SSR markers to genotype more than 2,400 accessions across 14 collections representing three broad geographic regions (North + East, West South) with the aim analyze extent, distribution variation resources Europe. A Bayesian model-based...
Deciphering the genetic control of flowering and ripening periods in apple is essential for breeding cultivars adapted to their growing environments. We implemented a large Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) at European level using an association panel 1,168 different genotypes distributed over six locations phenotyped these phenological traits. The was genotyped high-density SNPs Axiom®Apple 480 K SNP array. ran GWAS with multi-locus mixed model (MLMM), which handles putatively...
A collection of 141 old and local Spanish accessions pear ( Pyrus communis ) from the Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería Agraria-Universidad Lleida (ETSIA-UdL) Pear Germplasm Bank in Lleida, Spain, were studied using a set eight microsatellite markers to estimate genetic diversity collection, identify structure relationships among its accessions, establish representative core collection. An additional 13 well-known cultivars, currently grown Spain which represent wide diversity, added as...
Fingerprinting information can be used to elucidate in a robust manner the genetic structure of germplasm collections, allowing more rational and fine assessment resources. Bayesian model-based approaches are nowadays majorly preferred infer structure, but it is still largely unresolved how marker sets should built order obtain inference. The objective was evaluate, Pyrus influence SSR set size on inferred, also evaluating criterion select those markers. Inferences were performed considering...
European plum (Prunus domestica L.) is an ancient domesticated species cultivated in temperate areas worldwide whose genetic structure has been scarcely analyzed to date. In this study, a broad representation of Spanish germplasm collected Northeastern Spain and representative set reference cultivars were compared using nuclear chloroplast markers. The number alleles per locus detected with the SSR markers ranged from 8 39, average 23.4 alleles, haplotypes identified. Bayesian model-based...
Abstract The nature and structure of genetic diversity in the Spanish apple germplasm preserved at national level was widely unknown, since studies performed to date on this topic have been exclusively carried out regional scale. Here, 1453 accessions from collections Malus × domestica were evaluated with a common set 13 SSR (Simple Sequence Repeats) markers order estimate diversity, identify underlying unravel relationships among them wide international cultivars for reference. In total,...
Powdery mildew is a worldwide major fungal disease for grapevine, which adversely affects both crop yield and produce quality. Disease identification based on visible signs of pathogen once the plant has already been infected; therefore, techniques that allow objective diagnosis are currently needed. In this study, potential hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology to assess presence powdery in grapevine bunches was evaluated. Thirty Carignan Noir grape bunches, 15 healthy infected, were...
Aim: An advance in grapevine phenological stages (including ripening) is occurring worldwide due to global warming and, the hottest seasons, already results a lack of synchrony between sugar and phenolic ripeness, leading unbalanced wines. In order cope with this fact, general effort being made by researchers growers aiming at delaying ripening through cultural practices, particularly under warm growing conditions, where these effects are more deleterious. The aim work evaluate which extent...
A quick and accurate sampling method for determining yield in peach orchards could lead to better crop management decisions, more insurance claim adjustment, reduced expenses the industry. Given that sample size depends exclusively on variability of trees orchard, it is necessary have a objective way assessing this variability. The aim study was use remote sensing detect spatial within classify into homogeneous zones constitute strata decrease size. Five mature with different degrees were...

Abstract Core collections (CCs) constitute a key tool for the characterization and management of genetic resources (GR). When institutions involved in GR preservation decide to define CC, they frequently prefer select accessions based not only on strictly objective criteria, but also add others following expert knowledge considerations (popularity, prestige, role breeding history, or presence phenotypic features interest). The aim this study was evaluate implications approaches that combine...
Choosing the most appropriate rootstock(s) is a key decision for profitability of vineyards; therefore, there must be sufficient range rootstocks in market adapted to different environmental conditions and production objectives. However, rootstock-breeding programs have been scarce recent decades, used today were bred century ago, when needs sector very from today. In this work, we aimed evaluate new rootstock candidates before their introduction market. An agronomic evaluation was conducted...
Abstract Viral diseases in grapevine cause large economic losses due to decreased irregular yield and unbalanced ripening, can even lead plant mortality. There is a number of viral agents, few them have prominent impact their worldwide distribution, virulence, incidence. Although previous research has evaluated variations load between organs time since infection, there still lack knowledge on how the viruses are transported toward developing tissues. In this work, we present results two...
Beyond pest resistance, rootstocks significantly influence the performance of grapevine varieties. However, effect rootstock is strongly affected by its interaction with environment, and it therefore necessary to evaluate their in a particular terroir. With aim evaluating 12 on agronomic 'Syrah' 'Tempranillo', trial was established 2011 2012 Miranda de Arga (Navarra, Spain), under typical environmental conditions Ebro Valley. Growth yield, as well industrial phenolic maturity parameters were...
The description of phenotypic traits in apple cultivars is generally performed using internationally agreed descriptors such as UPOV guidelines, which defines for each trait several states expression.However, it not always possible to classify a cultivar unambiguously those because practice the are clearly enough defined or example varieties available collections.This work presents results harmonization project by teams responsible main germplasm collections Spain.The objective was develop...
One of the most important effects climate change in wine-growing areas is advance phenological stages, especially concerning early berry ripening. In hottest seasons, this results a lack synchrony between sugar and phenolic ripeness. order to cope with fact, general effort being made by researchers growers aiming at delaying ripening through different strategies. proposed approaches application elicitors. This study aims assess effect transcriptomic level three hormone- natural-based...
Spanish pear germplasm collections are crucial for preservation, research, and breeding efforts. However, genetic diversity structure is unknown at national level. A coordinated project analyzed 1251 accessions from 7 using an internationally recognized set of 14 SSRs to enhance the utilization these collections. Key findings included identification 760 unique genotypes (490 diploids 270 triploids). Notably, represented by a single accession accounted 49% total, indicating high vulnerability...
