Peach rosette mosaic disease was first described in the 1940s affecting peach and plum. It was later determined that peach rosette mosaic virus (PRMV) is the causal agent of the disease. PRMV, a member of the genus Nepovirus, infects several perennial crops including stone fruit, grape and blueberry as well as several weed species found in orchards around the world. The molecular characterization of the virus is limited to partial genome sequences making it difficult to develop reliable and sensitive molecular detection tests; the reason that detection is routinely performed using ELISA with antibodies risen against a single virus isolate. Given the potential economic impact of the virus and the modes of transmission which, in addition to nematodes, include seed we studied PRMV in more depth using a modified dsRNA extraction protocol to obtain the virus genome. We determined the full nucleotide sequence and developed a protocol that detects conserved regions present in RNA 1 and RNA 2, making it an excellent alternative to the detection protocols used today.

Article Synopsis
  • Gibberellins (GAs) are crucial enzymes for plant growth, influenced by gibberellin-oxidases (GAoxs), and this study identifies 85 GAox genes across four plant species, classifying them into six subgroups.
  • Analysis of gene structure reveals conserved GAoxs, with findings indicating specific tissue expression and the role of certain genes in regulating GA levels during flower bud dormancy.
  • Overexpression of a specific GAox led to noticeable physical changes in the plant, such as shorter height and variation in leaf structure, highlighting the importance of GAoxs in controlling plant architecture.

Branch number is an important agronomic trait in peach () trees because plant architecture affects fruit yield and quality. Although breeders can select varieties with different tree architecture, the biological mechanisms underlying architecture remain largely unclear. In this study, a pillar peach ('Zhaoshouhong') and a standard peach ('Okubo') were compared.

Background: Heat shock factors (HSFs) play important roles during normal plant growth and development and when plants respond to diverse stressors. Although most studies have focused on the involvement of HSFs in the response to abiotic stresses, especially in model plants, there is little research on their participation in plant growth and development or on the HSF (PpHSF) gene family in peach ().

Methods: DBD (PF00447), the HSF characteristic domain, was used to search the peach genome and identify .

Since 2015, several blueberry plants () of cvs. Draper and Top Shelf in an organic farm in eastern Washington State showed reduced growth with deformed leaves displaying chlorotic spots, rings, and red blotches and producing small and poorly ripened berries. The symptomatic plants showed gradual decline within 2 to 3 years post-planting.
