The organoleptic quality of fleshy fruits is in a large part defined by their composition of
soluble sugars and organic acids. An F 2 population issuing from a cross between two …

A genetic linkage map of peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batch] was constructed in order to
identify molecular markers linked to economically important agronomic traits that would be …

Two intraspecific peach breeding populations have been used to conduct a quantitative trait
locus (QTL) analysis of fruit quality traits: an F 1 from the cross Bolero (B) x OroA (O) and an …

The identification of genes involved in variation of peach fruit quality would assist breeders
in creating new cultivars with improved fruit quality. Major genes and quantitative trait loci …

The purpose of the present study was to identify tight linkage between important agronomic
traits and molecular markers with the aim of using them in Marker Assisted Selection (MAS) …

Genetic control of the different attributes involved in peach quality has been investigated in
an advanced backcross population derived from a cross between Prunus davidiana clone …

Ecophysiological models are increasingly expected to include genetic information via
genotype-dependent parameters. These parameters could be considered as quantitative …

Fruit quality is an essential criterion used to select new cultivars in peach breeding programs
and is determined based on a combination of organoleptic and nutritional traits. The aim of …

The map locations and effects of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were estimated for eight flower
and fruit traits in sour cherry (Prunus cerasus L.) using a restriction fragment length …

Breeding for fruit quality traits is complex due to the polygenic (quantitative) nature of the
genetic control of these traits. Therefore, to improve the speed and efficiency of genotype …
