| the arabidopsis npr1 gene confers broad-spectrum disease resistance in strawberry. | although strawberry is an economically important fruit crop worldwide, production of strawberry is limited by its susceptibility to a wide range of pathogens and the lack of major commercial cultivars with high levels of resistance to multiple pathogens. the objective of this study is to ectopically express the arabidopsis thaliana npr1 gene (atnpr1) in the diploid strawberry fragaria vesca l. and to test transgenic plants for disease resistance. atnpr1 is a key positive regulator of the long-la ... | 2015 | 25812515 |
| genome-wide identification and characterization of r2r3myb family in rosaceae. | transcription factors r2r3myb family have been associated with the control of secondary metabolites, development of structures, cold tolerance and response to biotic and abiotic stress, among others. in recent years, genomes of rosaceae botanical family are available. although this information has been used to study the karyotype evolution of these species from an ancestral genome, there are no studies that treat the evolution and diversity of gene families present in these species or in the bot ... | 2016 | 27408811 |
| comparative analysis of predicted plastid-targeted proteomes of sequenced higher plant genomes. | plastids are actively involved in numerous plant processes critical to growth, development and adaptation. they play a primary role in photosynthesis, pigment and monoterpene synthesis, gravity sensing, starch and fatty acid synthesis, as well as oil, and protein storage. we applied two complementary methods to analyze the recently published apple genome (malus × domestica) to identify putative plastid-targeted proteins, the first using targetp and the second using a custom workflow utilizing a ... | 2014 | 25393533 |
| the strawberry gene fagast affects plant growth through inhibition of cell elongation. | the strawberry (fragaria x ananassa) fagast gene encodes a small protein with 12 cysteine residues conserved in the c-terminal region similar to a group of proteins identified in other species with diverse assigned functions such as cell division, elongation, or elongation arrest. this gene is expressed in the fruit receptacle, with two peaks during ripening at the white and the red-ripe stages, both coincident with an arrest in the growth pattern. expression is also high in the roots but confin ... | 2006 | 16804055 |
| synteny analysis in rosids with a walnut physical map reveals slow genome evolution in long-lived woody perennials. | mutations often accompany dna replication. since there may be fewer cell cycles per year in the germlines of long-lived than short-lived angiosperms, the genomes of long-lived angiosperms may be diverging more slowly than those of short-lived angiosperms. here we test this hypothesis. | 2015 | 26383694 |
| homomorphic zw chromosomes in a wild strawberry show distinctive recombination heterogeneity but a small sex-determining region. | recombination in ancient, heteromorphic sex chromosomes is typically suppressed at the sex-determining region (sdr) and proportionally elevated in the pseudoautosomal region (par). however, little is known about recombination dynamics of young, homomorphic plant sex chromosomes. we examine male and female function in crosses and unrelated samples of the dioecious octoploid strawberry fragaria chiloensis in order to map the small and recently evolved sdr controlling both traits and to examine rec ... | 2016 | 27102236 |
| evolutionary origins and dynamics of octoploid strawberry subgenomes revealed by dense targeted capture linkage maps. | whole-genome duplications are radical evolutionary events that have driven speciation and adaptation in many taxa. higher-order polyploids have complex histories often including interspecific hybridization and dynamic genomic changes. this chromosomal reshuffling is poorly understood for most polyploid species, despite their evolutionary and agricultural importance, due to the challenge of distinguishing homologous sequences from each other. here, we use dense linkage maps generated with targete ... | 2014 | 25477420 |
| comparative analysis of fruit aroma patterns in the domesticated wild strawberries "profumata di tortona" (f. moschata) and "regina delle valli" (f. vesca). | strawberry is one of the most valued fruit worldwide. modern cultivated varieties (fragaria × ananassa) exhibit large fruits, with intense color and prolonged shell life. yet, these valuable traits were attained at the cost of the intensity and the variety of the aroma of the berry, two characteristics highly appreciated by consumers. wild species display smaller fruits and reduced yield compared with cultivated varieties but they accumulate broader and augmented blends of volatile compounds. be ... | 2015 | 25717332 |
| early metabolic and transcriptional variations in fruit of natural white-fruited fragaria vesca genotypes. | strawberry fruits (fragaria vesca) are valued for their sweet fruity flavor, juicy texture, and characteristic red color caused by anthocyanin pigments. to gain a deeper insight into the regulation of anthocyanin biosynthesis, we performed comparative metabolite profiling and transcriptome analyses of one red-fruited and two natural white-fruited strawberry varieties in two tissues and three ripening stages. developing fruit of the three genotypes showed a distinctive pattern of polyphenol accum ... | 2017 | 28327625 |
| endophytic fungal diversity of fragaria vesca, a crop wild relative of strawberry, along environmental gradients within a small geographical area. | fungal endophytes are highly diverse ubiquitous asymptomatic microorganisms, some of which appear to be symbiotic. depending on abiotic conditions and genotype of the plant, the diversity of endophytes may confer fitness benefits to plant communities. | 2017 | 28168102 |
| partial preferential chromosome pairing is genotype dependent in tetraploid rose. | it has long been recognised that polyploid species do not always neatly fall into the categories of auto- or allopolyploid, leading to the term 'segmental allopolyploid' to describe everything in between. the meiotic behaviour of such intermediate species is not fully understood, nor is there consensus as to how to model their inheritance patterns. in this study we used a tetraploid cut rose (rosa hybrida) population, genotyped using the 68k wagrhsnp array, to construct an ultra-high-density lin ... | 2017 | 28142191 |
| identification and transcript analysis of the tcp transcription factors in the diploid woodland strawberry fragaria vesca. | plant-specific teosinte branched 1, cycloidea, and proliferating cell factors (tcp) transcription factors play versatile functions in multiple processes of plant growth and development. however, no systematic study has been performed in strawberry. in this study, 19 fvtcp genes were identified in the diploid woodland strawberry (fragaria vesca) accession heilongjiang-3. phylogenetic analysis suggested that the fvtcp genes were classified into two main classes, with the second class further divid ... | 2016 | 28066489 |
| global identification of alternative splicing via comparative analysis of smrt- and illumina-based rna-seq in strawberry. | alternative splicing (as) is a key post-transcriptional regulatory mechanism, yet little information is known about its roles in fruit crops. here, as was globally analyzed in the wild strawberry fragaria vesca genome with rna-seq data derived from different stages of fruit development. the as landscape was characterized and compared between the single-molecule, real-time (smrt) and illumina rna-seq platform. while smrt has a lower sequencing depth, it identifies more genes undergoing as (57.67% ... | 2017 | 27997733 |
| pathway analysis and omics data visualization using pathway genome databases: fragariacyc, a case study. | the species-specific plant pathway genome databases (pgdbs) based on the biocyc platform provide a conceptual model of the cellular metabolic network of an organism. such frameworks allow analysis of the genome-scale expression data to understand changes in the overall metabolisms of an organism (or organs, tissues, and cells) in response to various extrinsic (e.g. developmental and differentiation) and/or extrinsic signals (e.g. pathogens and abiotic stresses) from the surrounding environment. ... | 2017 | 27987175 |
| stable epigenetic variants selected from an induced hypomethylated fragaria vesca population. | epigenetic inheritance was transmitted through selection over five generations of extreme early, but not late flowering time phenotypic lines in fragaria vesca. epigenetic variation was initially artificially induced using the dna demethylation reagent 5-azacytidine (5-azac). it is the first report to explore epigenetic variant selection and phenotypic trait inheritance in strawberry. transmission frequency of these traits was determined across generations. the early flowering (ef4) and late sto ... | 2016 | 27965682 |
| high-density snp-based genetic maps for the parents of an outcrossed and a selfed tetraploid garden rose cross, inferred from admixed progeny using the 68k rose snp array. | dense genetic maps create a base for qtl analysis of important traits and future implementation of marker-assisted breeding. in tetraploid rose, the existing linkage maps include <300 markers to cover 28 linkage groups (4 homologous sets of 7 chromosomes). here we used the 68k wagrhsnp axiom single-nucleotide polymorphism (snp) array for rose, in combination with snp dosage calling at the tetraploid level, to genotype offspring from the garden rose cultivar 'red new dawn'. the offspring proved t ... | 2016 | 27818777 |
| the effect of fragaria vesca extract on smear layer removal: a scanning electron microscopic evaluation. | successful endodontic treatment depends on elimination of the microorganisms through chemomechanical debridement. the aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effectiveness of fragaria vesca (wild strawberry) extract (fve) on the removal of smear layer (sl). | 2015 | 26526069 |
