Open AccessGenome-wide association analysis and validation with KASP markers for nut and shell traits in almond (Prunus dulcis [Mill.] D.A.Webb)
Almond shell hardness is an economically important quality trait that protects the integrity of the kernel. It is directly related with shelling or crack-out percent. In the U.S. and Australian markets, soft t...

Wild and Related Species as a Breeding Source for Biotic Stress Resistance of Peach Cultivars and Rootstocks
Cultivated peach is of global importance as both fresh market and processing cultivars and as rootstocks. Limited genetic options for breeding resistance to biotic stress is a consequence of a limited initial ...

The delay of flowering time in almond: a review of the combined effect of adaptation, mutation and breeding
Regulation of flowering time in almond, as in other Prunus species, is a complex process involving both chill and heat requirements. Following exposure to appropriate consecutive periods of cold and warm temperat...

QTL map** and breeding value estimation through pedigree-based analysis of fruit size and weight in four diverse peach breeding programs
The narrow genetic base of peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) challenges efforts to accurately dissect the genetic architecture of complex traits. Standardized phenotypic assessment of pedigree-linked breeding germ...

QTL map** of pomological traits in peach and related species breeding germplasm
Peach is an economically important fruit tree crop that exhibits high phenotypic variability yet suffers from diversity-limited gene pool. Genetic introgression of novel alleles from related species is being p...

Phenotypic diversity among local Spanish and foreign peach and nectarine [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] accessions
Phenotypic data for tree and fruit characteristics was collected over three consecutive years from a germplasm collection of 94 peach and nectarine accessions representing both traditional Spanish as well as f...

High density SNP map** and QTL analysis for fruit quality characteristics in peach (Prunus persica L.)
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were used to construct an integrated SNP linkage map of peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch). A set of 1,536 SNPs were evaluated with the GoldenGate® Genoty** assay in two m...

Influence of year and genetic factors on chilling injury susceptibility in peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch)
Chilling injury (CI) is a major physiological problem limiting consumption and export of peach and nectarine (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch). To clarify the genetic basis for chilling injury, inheritance of the majo...
