Abstract Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) is a leading flower with
applied value worldwide. Developing new chrysanthemum cultivars with novel …

The cut flower industry has a global reach as flowers are often produced in countries around
the equator and transported by plane or ship (reefer) mostly to the global north. Vase-life …

Members of the R2R3‐MYB transcription factor subgroup 19 (SG19) have been extensively
studied in multiple plant species using different silenced or mutated lines. Some studies …

Improving marketability and extension of vase life of cut flowers has practical significance for
the development of the cut flower industry. Although considerable efforts have been made …

The effect of light intensity applied shortly before harvest on the nutritional quality,
postharvest performance, and shelf life of loose-leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. cv. Expertise …

Key message We constructed the first integrated genetic linkage map in a polysomic
hexaploid. This enabled us to estimate inheritance of parental haplotypes in the offspring …

Main conclusion Local and systemic induction of JA-associated chemical defenses and
resistance to western flower thrips in Chrysanthemum are spatially variable and dependent …

Vascular system blockages and a shortage of mechanistic support are important limitations
on the vase life quality of cut flowers. These characteristics contribute to sensitivity to neck …

Little is known on the environmental control of potato flowering. With recent developments in
potato breeding, and the growing interest in true potato seed production, more knowledge …

Breeding for postharvest performance in ornamentals is challenging, since many different
deteriorative processes determine vase life. In order to improve postharvest performance by …
