A consensus genetic map for chicory (2 n= 2 x= 18) was obtained after the integration of
molecular marker data of two industrial chicory progenies (K28K59, Rubis118) and one …

High-density genetic maps were constructed for loci involved in nuclear male sterility (NMS1-
locus) and sporophytic self-incompatibility (S-locus) in chicory (Cichorium intybus L.). The …

Chicory (Cichorium intybus) roots contain high amounts of inulin, a fructose polymer used as
a storage carbohydrate by the plant and as a human dietary and prebiotic compound. We …

Chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) is a widely distributed plant which belongs to the family

A chicory genetic map of 1208 cM has been created using 247 F2 plants and 237 markers
(170 AFLP, 28 SSR, 27 EST‐SNP and 12 EST‐SSR). This map covers 84% of the chicory …

Background Pyrethrins are monoterpenoids and consist of either a chrysanthemic acid or
