Candidate gene selection and detailed morphological evaluations of fs8.1, a quantitative trait locus controlling tomato fruit shape
(Oxford University Press, 2015-09)
fs8.1 is a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) that controls the elongated shape of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit. In this study, we fine-mapped the locus from a 47Mb to a 3.03Mb interval on the long arm of chromosome ...
A candidate gene survey of quantitative trait loci affecting chemical composition in tomato fruit
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2008-07)
In tomato, numerous wild-related species have been demonstrated to be untapped sources of valuable genetic variability, including pathogen-resistance genes, nutritional, and industrial quality traits. From a collection of ...
Clinal variation along precipitation gradients in Patagonian temperate forests: unravelling demographic and selection signatures in three Nothofagus spp.
(EDP Sciences, 2020-01)
Context: Clinal genetic variation in natural populations could reflect either recent demographic history or the evolution of adapted genotypes along heterogeneous environments.Aims: We describe genetic variation patterns ...
Exploring gene networks in two sunflower lines with contrasting leaf senescence phenotype using a system biology approach
(BioMed Central, 2019-10-24)
Background: Leaf senescence is a complex process, controlled by multiple genetic and environmental variables. In sunflower, leaf senescence is triggered abruptly following anthesis thereby limiting the capacity of plants ...
Single nucleotide polymorphisms in candidate genes and their relation with somatic cell scores in Argentinean dairy cattle
(2015-11)
The prevention and control of bovine mastitis by enhancing natural defenses in animals is important to improve the quality of dairy products. Mastitis resistance is a complex trait which depends on genetic components, as ...
A genome-wide association study of mare fertility in the Pura Raza Español horse
(Elsevier, 2022-03)
Despite the economic importance of fertility for the horse industry, few efforts have been made to achieve a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying its control. This is probably due to the difficulty of ...
A cluster of MYB transcription factors regulates anthocyanin biosynthesis in carrot (Daucus carota L.) root and petiole
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019-01-14)
Purple carrots can accumulate large quantities of anthocyanins in their roots and – in some genetic backgrounds-petioles, and therefore they represent an excellent dietary source of antioxidant phytonutrients. In a previous ...
