The last decade has been characterized by a decrease in peach (Prunus persica) fruit
consumption in many countries, foremost due to unsatisfactory quality. The sugar content is …

Prior to the availability of whole-genome sequences, our understanding of the structural and
functional aspects of Prunus tree genomes was limited mostly to molecular genetic mapping …

Background The availability of the peach genome sequence has fostered relevant research
in peach and related Prunus species enabling the identification of genes underlying …

Abstract Background Genome structural variations (SVs) have been associated with key
traits in a wide range of agronomically important species; however, SV profiles of peach and …

Peach (Prunus persica L.) is a highly valuable crop species and is recognized by molecular
researchers as a model fruit for the Rosaceae family. Using whole-genome sequencing data …

Background Human selection has a long history of transforming crop genomes. Peach
(Prunus persica) has undergone more than 5000 years of domestication that led to …

Eating plant-derived compounds can lead to a longer and healthier life and also benefits the
environment. Innovation in the fresh food sector, as well as new cultivars, can improve …

We sequenced the genome of the highly heterozygous almond Prunus dulcis cv. Texas
combining short‐and long‐read sequencing. We obtained a genome assembly totaling …

In plants, fruit ripening is a coordinated developmental process that requires the change in
expression of hundreds to thousands of genes to modify many biochemical and …

Abstract Background Structural variations (SVs), a major resource of genomic variation, can
have profound consequences on phenotypic variation, yet the impacts of SVs remain largely …
