<title>Abstract</title> Persian walnut <italic>(Juglans regia L.)</italic> is cultivated globally for its large edible nuts, which have a dehiscent hull that simplifies nut harvest and papery inner shell or septum allows easy kernel extraction. Here, we use reduced-representation sequencing to genotype the largest panel of <italic>J. regia</italic> ever assembled (n = 2,850) evaluate evolutionary history population structure. Haplotype length analysis genome-wide trait association identify...
Pollination is essential for producing temperate-zone tree fruits like apples (Malus × domestica). While traditionally considered insect-dependent, this view may result from orchard designs tailored to European honeybees. Previous research showed that low-seed could develop in insect exclusion nets, suggesting wind as an alternative pollinator. This study investigated the paternal origin of seeds and fruit set under nets compared open canopies. Netted canopies 'Gala', Fuji', 'Honeycrisp'...
Abstract Different budding methods (patch, shield and chip) were compared under controlled field conditions using different native varieties of Persian walnut (Juglans rejia L.) during June 2005, in Nieriz, Fars province, Iran. Controlling temperature humidity a greenhouse improved grafting success considerably all with results conditions. The highest rate was obtained patch (91.0%) followed by (31.1%) chip (19.1%) versus 25.0, 15.0 10.0% conditions, respectively. Similar trends also...
Abstract Background The walnut family (Juglandaceae) contains commercially important woody trees commonly called walnut, wingnut, pecan and hickory. Phylogenetic relationships diversification within the Juglandaceae are classic hot scientific topics that have been elucidated by recent fossil, morphological, molecular, (paleo) environmental data. Further resolution of among genera is still needed can be achieved analysis variation chloroplast, mtDNA, nuclear genomes. Results We reconstructed...
Limiting the juvenile phase and reducing tree size are two main challenges for breeders to improve most fruit crops. Early maturation dwarf cultivars have been reported many species. “Early mature” low vigor walnut genotypes were found among seedlings of Persian walnut. Nine microsatellite markers used evaluate genetic diversity Mature” accessions provide a comparison with “normal growth” accessions. Six related characteristics also measured in samples. Phenotypic traits indices showed...
In this study, morphological characteristics as well ten of Simple Sequence Repeat (SSRs) loci were used to analyze the genetic diversity and relationships among 12 natural populations Persian walnut (Juglans regia L.) in northern western regions Iran. The results showed that there was a high level walnuts, both terms their SSRs traits. nut weight ranged from 11.5 17.2 g, kernel 3.2 6.3 percentage 28 46.7%. analysis, number alleles per locus 6 11, with total 83 average 8.3 4.9 effective...
The main objective of this study was to examine the characteristics and relationship between walnuts in Una-Sana Canton based on phenotypic properties. This is first preselection walnut variability area. In study, we evaluated phenological morphological 75 selected genotypes during 2014 2015. Twenty-four traits were monitored throughout 2 years different sites. results PCA analysis showed a very high heterogeneity seedlings examined sites, from aspect observed parameters. A limited number...
Dysfunction of the central dopaminergic neurotransmission has been suggested to play an important role in etiology schizophrenia. The dopamine transporter (DAT1) mediates active reuptake from synapses and thereby plays a key regulation neurotransmission. In this study, we sought determine possible association DAT1 gene core promoter polymorphism -67A/T with schizophrenia case/control study. allele genotype frequencies were studied 100 patients controls, which matched on basis sex, age,...
Walnut ( Juglans ) species are economically important hardwood trees cultivated worldwide for both edible nuts and high-quality wood. Broad-scale assessments of diversity, evolutionary history, domestication needed to improve walnut breeding. In this study, we sequenced 309 accessions from around the world, including 55 relatives, 98 wild Persian walnuts J . regia ), 70 landraces, 86 cultivars. The phylogenetic tree indicated that samples (section Dioscaryon were monophyletic within core...
Pistachio is one of the most economically important nut crops worldwide. However, there are no reports describing chloroplast genome this fruit tree. In investigation, we assembled and characterized complete pistachio sequence. The Pistacia vera was 160,598 bp in size, similar to other members Anacardiaceae (149,011–172,199 bp) exhibited typical four section structure, including a large single copy region (88,174 bp), small (19,330 pair inverted repeats regions (26,547 bp). contains 121...
Abstract Walnuts ( Juglans spp .) are economically important nut and timber species with a worldwide distribution. Using the published Persian walnut genome as reference for assembly of short reads from six several interspecific hybrids, we identified simple sequence repeats in 12 nuclear organellar genomes. The genome-wide distribution polymorphisms microsatellites (SSRs) most genomes have not been previously studied. We compared frequency SSR motifs their lengths across , section-specific...
Artificial pollination of black walnut (Juglans nigra L.) is not practical and timber breeders have historically utilized only open-pollinated half-sib families. An alternate approach called "breeding without breeding," consists genotyping progeny using DNA markers to identify paternal parents then constructing full-sib In 2014, we used 12 SSR genotype 884 harvested from two clonal orchards containing 206 trees, comprised 52 elite selections. Seed was in 2011 each ramets 23 clones, one...
