The plant family Rosaceae consists of over 100 genera and 3,000 species that include many
important fruit, nut, ornamental, and wood crops. Members of this family provide high-value …

Despite its value as a crop and potential utility as an experimental system, relatively little is
known about the molecular-genetic aspects of inheritance or physiology in the cultivated …

Background Gene editing using CRISPR/Cas9 is a simple and powerful tool for elucidating
genetic controls and for crop improvement and its use has been reported in a growing …

In addition to the role of the cell wall as a physical barrier against pathogens, some of its
constituents, such as pectin‐derived oligogalacturonides (OGA), are essential components …

The seasons are astronomical, astrological, meteorological, biological, and agricultural.
From a perspective outside the biological sciences, the questions of interest about plant …

The fruit of the strawberry Fragaria× ananassa has traditionally been classified as non-
climacteric because its ripening process is not governed by ethylene. However, previous …

Fragaria vesca L., a diploid (2 n= 2 x= 14) relative of the commercial octoploid strawberry, is
an attractive model for functional genomics research in Rosaceae. Its small genome size …

The different types of organogenic (roots and adventitious shoots) and callus formation
responses of leaves from 30-day-old proliferating shoots of different Fragaria spp. genotypes …

The effects of growth regulator balance and culture conditions on the morphogenetic
response of leaf disks from greenhouse grown plants of the strawberry cultivar Chandler …

Diploid Fragaria provide a potential model for genomic studies in the Rosaceae. To develop
a genetic linkage map of diploid Fragaria, we scored 78 markers (68 microsatellites, one …
