The genome of the domesticated apple ( Malus × domestica Borkh.)

Riccardo Velasco, +90 more
- 01 Oct 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that a relatively recent (>50 million years ago) genome-wide duplication has resulted in the transition from nine ancestral chromosomes to 17 chromosomes in the Pyreae, which partly support the monophyly of the ancestral paleohexaploidy of eudicots.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression profiling in HcrVf2-transformed apple plants in response to Venturia inaequalis.

TL;DR: This work used a PCR-based suppression subtractive hybridization to identify apple genes that are differentially expressed after Venturia inaequalis inoculation and constructed a library of 523 unigenes, which includes many defence-related genes and is therefore an important source of information for understanding the molecular basis of the Malus–V.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-resolution genetic and physical map of the Rvi1 (Vg) apple scab resistance locus

TL;DR: The first steps of the cloning of a new scab resistance gene, Rvi1 (Vg), are described, carried by the well-known cultivar ‘Golden Delicious’ and confers specific resistance against V. inaequalis strains carrying the AvrRvi1 avirulence factor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping and functional analysis of four apple receptor-like protein kinases related to LRPKm1 in HcrVf2-transgenic and wild-type apple plants

TL;DR: Localization of LRPKm proteins at the cytological level in the plasma membrane of epidermal cells in resistant genotypes following pathogen challenge is confirmed, thus confirming software predictions and molecular results.
