The cultivated passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa) is a cross-pollinated species native to South America. In the current study, a segregating F1 population derived from a single cross between the clones IAPAR-06 and IAPAR-123 was used to construct AFLP-based linkage maps and to map resistance genes to bacterial spot caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. passiflorae. Linkage analysis was performed by the 2-way pseudo-testcross mapping method using markers that segregated in a 1:1 ratio. The IAPAR-06 linkage map was constructed using 115 markers, 112 of which were allocated to 9 linkage groups (LG) covering 790.2 cM. The map of IAPAR-123 was constructed using 140 markers, 138 of which were allocated to 9 LG covering 488.9 cM. In both maps, clusters of markers were detected, indicating that the AFLP markers were not distributed at random. Bacterial resistance was assessed by measuring the diseased leaf area after wound-inoculating the leaves of F1 plants. Quantitative resistance loci (QRLs) mapping was carried out by composite interval mapping and 1 QRL was detected, which explained 15.8% of the total phenotypic variation. The possibility of considering these data for marker-assisted selection in passion fruit breeding programs is discussed.

Background: Purple passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. edulis) is a highly appreciated fruit typically consumed in fresh or processed into various food products. The peel and seeds, which are by-products of fruit processing, are rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds with potential to be valorised into food applications.

Passion fruit is one of the most famous fruit crops in tropical and subtropical regions due to its high edible, medicinal, and ornamental value. Flavonoids, a class of plant secondary metabolites, have important health-related roles. In this study, a total of 151 flavonoid metabolites were identified, of which 25 key metabolites may be the main contributors to the purple phenotype.

Passion fruit ( Sims) is a Passifloraceae plant with high economic value. Crown rot caused by is a major fungal disease, which can seriously reduce the yield and quality of passion fruit. Receptor-like proteins (RLPs), which act as pathogen recognition receptors, are widely involved in plant immune responses and developmental processes.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how the age-related microRNA miR156 influences the development of extrafloral nectaries (EFNs) in two species of passion flower.
- Results show that manipulation of miR156 affects both leaf maturation and EFN formation, with overexpression leading to smaller and fewer EFNs, while reduced activity results in larger EFNs in one species.
- This research highlights a connection between miR156 activity, nectar sugar profiles, and the ecological interactions between EFNs and ants, underscoring the role of the miR156/SPL module in regulating these traits based on leaf age.

While tropical fruit seeds are considered potential sources of functional or edible vegetable oils, their lipid profiles are poorly documented. Herein, the lipid profiles of nine tropical fruit seed oils were systematically evaluated and compared using lipidomics and chemometrics techniques. Cherimoya exhibited the highest total lipid content, while avocado had the lowest.
