Mitochondrial complex II (succinate dehydrogenase [SDH]) plays roles both in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and respiratory electron transport chain. In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), its flavoprotein subunit is encoded by two nuclear genes, SDH1-1 SDH1-2. Here, we characterize heterozygous SDH1-1/sdh1-1 mutant plants displaying a 30% reduction SDH activity as well partially silenced obtained RNA interference. We found that these displayed significantly higher CO(2) assimilation rates...
Global blueberry (Vaccinium spp.) growing has increased exponentially in the last two decades, fueled by a very dynamic offer of new cultivars. In this scenario, misclassification genotypes is matter concern, despite that good nursery management practices are place most countries and molecular fingerprinting tools have become available elsewhere. framework, here we report use three highly informative microsatellite (SSR) markers, selected after evaluating performance 12 SSRs on 30 commonly...
Gibberellins (GA3) are the most sprayed growth regulator for table grape production worldwide, increasing berry size of seedless varieties through pericarp cell expansion. However, these treatments also exacerbate drop, which has a detrimental effect on postharvest quality commercialized clusters. Several studies have suggested that pedicel stiffening caused by GA3 would role in this disorder. Nevertheless, transcriptional and phenotypic information regarding responses to is...
Berberis microphylla, commonly known as calafate, is one of the most promising species Chilean Patagonia to be domesticated, due its anthocyanin-rich berries. The main aim this study was understand genetic structure wild populations B. microphylla in regions where it grows and relationship with phenolic secondary metabolite profiles. Ripe berry samples leaves were collected from Aysén Magallanes regions. Genetic analyses carried out using 18 microsatellite markers. Phenolic compounds...
Genetic erosion of grapevine is becoming a serious worldwide problem and preserving its germplasm an urgent task. Chile not exception to this scenario, where diverse factors led by the replacement traditional varieties renown cultivars have reduced vineyard diversity. Therefore, discovering characterizing minor were main objectives study. In addition official catalogue around 100 used produce wine, we present here 89 genotypes previously described as in Chile, widely dispersed wine valleys,...
Overarching surveys of QTL (Quantitative Trait Loci) studies in both model plants and staple crops have facilitated the access to information boosted impact existing data on plant improvement activities. Today, grapevine community is ready take up challenge making wealth F.A.I.R.. To ensure that all valuable published can be used more effectively, myriad identified QTLs captured, standardised stored a dedicated public database. As an outcome GRAPEDIA initiative, QTL-dedicated experts from...
Compactness is a complex trait of V. vinifera L. and defined ultimately by the portion free space within bunch which not occupied berries. A high degree compactness results in poor ventilation consequently higher susceptibility to fungal diseases, diminishing quality fruit. The easiness conceptualize its importance arguably contrasts with difficulty measure quantify it. However, recent technical advancements have allowed study this attribute more accurately over last decade. Our main...
Oats are known for their nutritional value and also beneficial properties on human health, such as the reduction of cholesterol levels risk coronary heart disease; they an important export product Chile. During last decade (2010-2022) over 90% oat cultivated area in Chile has been covered with Avena sativa L. cv. Supernova INIA. This lack genetic diversity a context climate change could limit long-term possibility growing oats The present study is phenotypic analysis 132 cultivars pure lines...
