Dissection of figured wood trait in curly birch (Betula pendula Roth var. carelica (Mercklin) Hämet-Ahti) using high-throughput genotyping.

Curly (Karelian) birch is a special variety of Betula pendula Roth distributed in the northwestern part of Europe. Karelian birch is well-known for its valuable figured curly wood also known as "wooden marble". The genetic basis underlying curly wood formation has been debated since last century, however, there was no data about loci responsible for the curly wood trait.

Development of a High-Density Genetic Map for Muscadine Grape Using a Mapping Population from Selfing of the Perfect-Flowered Vine 'Dixie'.

Intraspecific diversity of the immune grape Michaux. can serve as a rich source of valuable resistance loci to the most widespread pathogens and pests of grapevine. While only one resistance locus has been introgressed from to the gene pool, a number of other genes conferring resistance to powdery mildew and downy mildew have been identified in various cultivars.

Introgressions of Vitis rotundifolia Michx. to obtain grapevine genotypes with complex resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses.

Vitis rotundifolia Michx. is one of the species of the family Vitaceae, with resistance to both biotic and abiotic stresses. The present study reports new scientif ic knowledge about the inheritance of resistance to downy mildew, powdery mildew and frost by V.

Development of SNP Set for the Marker-Assisted Selection of Guar ( (L.) Taub.) Based on a Custom Reference Genome Assembly.

Guar gum, a polysaccharide derived from guar seeds, is widely used in a variety of industrial applications, including oil and gas production. Although guar is mostly propagated in India, interest in guar as a new industrial legume crop is increasing worldwide, demanding the development of effective tools for marker-assisted selection. In this paper, we report a wide-ranging set of 4907 common SNPs and 327 InDels generated from RADseq genotyping data of 166 guar plants of different geographical origin.

Identification of Key Metabolic Pathways and Biomarkers Underlying Flowering Time of Guar ( (L.) Taub.) via Integrated Transcriptome-Metabolome Analysis.

Guar ( (L.) Taub.) is an annual legume crop native to India and Pakistan.
