AGHmatrix: R Package to Construct Relationship Matrices for Autotetraploid and Diploid Species: A Blueberry Example
Rodrigo R. Amadeu,Catherine Cellon,James W. Olmstead,Antonio Augusto Franco Garcia,Marcio F. R. Resende,Patricio R. Munoz +5 more
TL;DR: An R package for autopolyploids to construct the relationship matrix is developed and the level and effect of double reduction in blueberry is estimated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fruit size QTL analysis of an F1 population derived from a cross between a domesticated sweet cherry cultivar and a wild forest sweet cherry
Guorong Zhang,Audrey Sebolt,Suneth S. Sooriyapathirana,Dechun Wang,Marco C. A. M. Bink,James W. Olmstead,Amy Iezzoni +6 more
TL;DR: To identify quantitative trait loci for fruit size and two essential components of fruit size, mesocarp cell number and size, a double pseudo-testcross population derived from reciprocal crosses between a sweet cherry cultivar and a wild forest sweet cherry selection was utilized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genotypic Differences in Sweet Cherry Fruit Size are Primarily a Function of Cell Number
TL;DR: Cell length was significantly influenced by the environment, indicating that cultural practices that maximize mesocarp cell size should be used to achieve a cultivar's fruit size potential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light modulation of volatile organic compounds from petunia flowers and select fruits
Thomas A. Colquhoun,Michael L. Schwieterman,Jessica L. Gilbert,Elizabeth Jaworski,Kelly M. Langer,Correy R. Jones,Gabrielle V. Rushing,Tia M. Hunter,James W. Olmstead,David G. Clark,Kevin M. Folta +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used narrowbandwidth LED light to test the hypothesis that discrete light wavelengths can affect the accumulation of volatile compounds known to affect aroma or taste in select flower and fruit products.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Linkage maps of the sweet cherry cultivar ‘Emperor Francis’ and the wild forest cherry ‘New York 54’ were constructed using primarily simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and gene-derived markers with known positions on the Prunus reference map suggesting that the cherry genome is colinear with that of the other diploid PrunUS species.
