Journal ArticleDOI

Genome sequence of the hot pepper provides insights into the evolution of pungency in Capsicum species

TL;DR: The genome size of the hot pepper was approximately fourfold larger than that of its close relative tomato, and the genome showed an accumulation of Gypsy and Caulimoviridae family elements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetics of Plant Virus Resistance

TL;DR: This chapter has catalogued genes for resistance to plant viruses and has summarized current knowledge regarding their identity and inheritance, and the genetic context, genomic organization, mechanisms of resistance and agricultural deployment of plant virus resistance genes are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Pun1 gene for pungency in pepper encodes a putative acyltransferase

TL;DR: Gen mapping, allele sequence data, expression profile and silencing analysis collectively indicate that the Pun1 locus in pepper encodes a putative acyltransferase, and the pun1 allele, used in pepper breeding for nearly 50 000 years, results from a large deletion at this locus.
Journal ArticleDOI

The pvr1 locus in Capsicum encodes a translation initiation factor eIF4E that interacts with Tobacco etch virus VPg.

TL;DR: In this article, the eIF4E homolog encoded at the pvr1 locus in Capsicum has been found to be associated with broad-spectrum potyvirus resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

A candidate gene approach identified phytoene synthase as the locus for mature fruit color in red pepper (Capsicum spp.)

TL;DR: The color, pigment content and genetic behavior of Habanero suggest that phytoene synthase may be responsible for the c2 gene discriminating between red and orange cultivars, and QTL analysis of the pigment content of F2 individuals quantified by HPLC indicated that phytochemical synthase is the locusresponsible for the development of fruit color.
