Genetic analysis of reproductive and nut traits in almond [Prunus dulcis (Mill.) D.A. Webb]
Almond is a perennial tree crop with a gametophytic self-incompatibility (SI) system. The SI system of almond is controlled by a multi-allelic locus, S, which is about 70,000 bp long. A nearly complete sequence for the entire S locus sequence has been available only for the S₇ haplotype. In this …

GENOMIC TOOLS TO IMPROVE PEACH (P. PERSICA L. BATSCH) RESILIENCE TO CLIMATE CHALLENGES
As one of the earliest flowering fruit trees, peach is constitutively subjected to yield loss caused by freezing temperature occurrence at blooming time. However, higher winter average temperatures recorded in recent years may lead to anticipated budbreak increasing the magnitude of this …
