Open AccessDistinct structural variants and repeat landscape shape the genomes of the ancient grapes Aglianico and Falanghina
Mounting evidence recognizes structural variations (SVs) and repetitive DNA sequences as crucial players in sha** the existing grape phenotypic diversity at intra- and inter-species levels. To deepen our und...

Functional characterization of DcMYB11, an R2R3 MYB associated with the purple pigmentation of carrot petiole
DcMYB11, an R2R3 MYB gene associated with petiole anthocyanin pigmentation in carrot, was functionally characterized. A putative enhancer sequence is able to increase DcMYB11 activity.

Open AccessIntegrative analysis of metabolome and transcriptome profiles to highlight aroma determinants in Aglianico and Falanghina grape berries
The biochemical makeup of grape berries at harvest is essential for wine quality and depends on a fine transcriptional regulation occurring during berry development. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive...

Inferring RPW8-NLRs’s evolution patterns in seed plants: case study in Vitis vinifera
Genomic and transcriptomic studies in plants and, more in deep, in grapevine reveal that the disease-resistance RNL gene family is highly variable.

LTR-TEs abundance, timing and mobility in Solanum commersonii and S. tuberosum genomes following cold-stress conditions
Copia/Ale is the youngest lineage in both Solanum tuberosum and S. commersonii. Within it, we identified nightshade, a new LTR element active in the cultivated potato.

Dicer-like and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase gene family identification and annotation in the cultivated Solanum tuberosum and its wild relative S. commersonii
We provide advances in DCL and RDR gene diversity in Solanaceae. We also shed light on DCL and RDR gene expression in response to cold stress.

Disease resistance gene transcription in transgenic potato is unaltered by temperature extremes and plant physiological age
To date, several dozen plant disease resistance genes have been cloned from a variety of species. Despite successful efforts to isolate functional disease resistance genes and understand their roles in defence...

Article
AFLP analysis to assess genomic stability in Solanum regenerants derived from wild and cultivated species
The cultivated potato as well as its tuber-bearing relatives are considered model plants for cell and tissue culture, and therefore for exploiting the genetic variation induced by in vitro culture. The associa...

Resistance to Ralstonia solanacearum of Sexual Hybrids Between Solanum commersonii and S. tuberosum
This research was carried out to study the levels of bacterial wilt resistance and genetic diversity of (near)pentaploid sexual hybrids between S. commersonii (2n = 2x = 24, 1EBN) and cultivated S. tuberosum. Fol...

Article
Resistance traits and AFLP characterization of diploid primitive tuber-bearing potatoes
Worldwide, a variety of pathogens negatively affect potato production, resulting in an estimated 22% annual yield reduction. Wild Solanum species represent a unique gene pool where all the traits necessary to ...

Article
Tuber quality and soft rot resistance of hybrids betweenSolarium tuberosum and the incongruent wild relativeS. commersonii
Tetraploid BC3 hybrids between sexually incompatible speciesSolanum commersonii andS. tuberosum were characterized for tuber quality (stolon length, tuber eye depth, chip** color from 3-month storage at 5 C, an...

Post-zygotic gametic selection due to endosperm balance number explains unusual chromosome numbers of 3×× 2× progeny in Solanum
Crosses between triploid and diploid genotypes are usually the best sources of trisomics in potato as well as in several other crop species. However, 3×× 2× crosses between triploid (2n=3×=36; 2EBN) Solanum comm...

Discrepancy between spindle anomalies and 2N pollen production insolanum interspecific hybrids
The cytological basis of 2n pollen production was studied in a diploidSolanum progeny coming from a cross between aS. tuberosum S. chacoense hybrid which does not produce2n pollen (T710) and a S.phurejar S. tuber...

Resistance to blackleg and tuber soft rot in sexual and somatic interspecific hybrids with different genetic background
Diploid interspecific hybrids from crosses betweenSolanum tuberosum haploids andS. canasense, S. multidissectum, andS. tarijense, along with tetraploid and hexaploid somatic hybrids S.tuberosum (+)S. commersonii,...
