This review describes in vitro mutation induction methods in fruits and the in vitro selection
procedures available for early screening. Results obtained through in vitro mutation …

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 …

The development of saturated linkage maps using transferable markers, restriction fragment
length polymorphisms, and micro-satellites has provided a foundation for fruit tree genetics …

We report the sequences of 17 primer pairs of microsatellite loci, which we have cloned and
sequenced from two genomic libraries of peach [Prunus persica (L) Batsch]'Redhaven' …

Linkage maps for the apple cultivars 'Prima'and 'Fiesta'were constructed using RFLP, RAPD,
isozyme, AFLP, SCAR and microsatellite markers in a 'Prima'×'Fiesta'progeny of 152 …

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 …

Trees are capable of tremendous architectural plasticity, allowing them to maximize their
light exposure under highly competitive environments. One key component of tree …

This is the first volume in a three volume comprehensive reference work presenting detailed
information on the breeding of horticultural crops. In a systematic way, the work presents: the …

A map with 246 markers (11 isozymes and 235 RFLPs) was constructed using an
interspecific F 2 population between almond (cv Texas) and peach (cv Earlygold). RFLPs …

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 …
