Sour cherry (Prunus cerasus L.) is an economically significant species in the Rosaceae family. Hitherto, there had been limited genetic and genomic resources to elucidate important horticultural traits this mainly because of complex polyploid nature its genome, a hybrid between Prunus avium fruticosa. An trait that has not well studied sour resistance leaf spot (CLS), caused by fungus Blumeriella jaapii. This work took advantage RosBREED 6 + 9 K SNP array study basis CLS inheritance cherry. We established F 1 segregating population crossing two cultivars, 'Schattenmorelle' 'Pc 2' genotyped both parents progeny with SSR markers. evaluated for susceptibility under field conditions. The applied marker systems facilitated development parental maps, identification stable QTLs associated resistance, CLSR_1f susceptibility, CLSS_1f, explaining 40.9% 21.5%, respectively, phenotypic variation within population. mechanism appears be independent QTL, CLSR_G4, previously identified P. canescens, as CLSR_G4-QTL allele were identified. Based on our findings, we propose two-gene model involving which might explain why some CLSR_G4-resistant plants previous studies susceptible.

Abstract Background The release of the first reference genome walnut (Juglans regia L.) enabled many achievements in characterization genetic and functional variation. However, it is highly fragmented, preventing integration genetic, transcriptomic, proteomic information to fully elucidate biological processes. Findings Here, we report new chromosome-scale assembly (Chandler v2.0) obtained by combining Oxford Nanopore long-read sequencing with chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) technology. Relative previous genome, features an 84.4-fold increase N50 size, 16 chromosomal pseudomolecules assembled representing 95% its total length. Using full-length transcripts from single-molecule real-time sequencing, predicted 37,554 gene models, a mean length higher than annotations. Most protein-coding genes (90%) present both start stop codons, which represents significant improvement compared Chandler v1.0 (only 48%). We then tested potential impact chromosome-level on different areas research. By studying proteome changes occurring during male flower development, observed that virtual v2.0 presents fewer artifacts enabling identification pollen allergen walnut. Also, facilitates in-depth studies intraspecies diversity revealing previously undetected autozygous regions Chandler, likely resulting inbreeding, 195 genomic differentiated between Western Eastern cultivars. Conclusion Overall, will serve as valuable resource better understand explore biology.

Peach is one of the most important fruit crops in world, with global annual production about 24.6 million tons. The United States fourth-largest producer after China, Spain, and Italy. consumption has decreased over last decade, likely due to inconsistent quality on market. Thus, marker-assisted selection for traits highly desired fresh market peach breeding programs major goals RosBREED project. ability use DNA information select desirable would enable breeders efficiently plan crosses seedlings early process before fruiting. Therefore, we assembled a multi-locus genome wide association study (GWAS) 620 individuals from three public (Arkansas, Texas, South Carolina). material was genotyped using 9K SNP array were phenotyped phenological (bloom date, ripening days bloom) 11 quality-related (blush, diameter, weight, adherence, firmness, redness around pit, texture, pit soluble solid concentration, titratable acidity, pH) seasons (2010, 2011, 2012). Multi-locus analyses, carried out mrMLM 4.0 FarmCPU R packages, revealed total 967 180 quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs), respectively. Among 88 consistently reliable QTNs detected multiple GWAS methods and/or at least two seasons, 44 first time. Fruit hotspots identified chromosomes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8. Out 566 candidate genes genomic regions harboring QTN clusters, 435 functionally annotated. Gene enrichment analyses 68 different gene ontology (GO) terms associated traits. Data reported here advance our understanding genetic mechanisms underlying further support development tools breeding.
