Fine mapping and characterization of the bitter gourd mature fruit-length QTL mfl5.1 reveals a lectin receptor-like kinase gene McLECRK1b controlling fruit elongation
Abstract Flesh thickness (FT) is the edible portion of melon fruit and directly affects its utilization rate, with an important influence on commerciality and yield. In this study, the phenotype of F2 populations derived from PI 282448 (thin-fleshed, ssp. melo, wild type) and M4-135 (thick-fleshed, ssp. melo, cultivar)...

The fungal plant pathogen Sphaerulina musiva (Ascomycota) causes Septoria stem canker, the most economically damaging disease of Populus plantations in North America, yet the genetic determinants of host resistance remain uncharacterized in hybrid poplar. Using an inoculation experiment with the 52-124 pseudo-backcross...

Results demonstrated that BnDF3 is a gain‐of‐function allele functioning as the gain‐of‐function BIN2 gene in brassinosteroid (BR) signalling pathway, which may provide both a functional marker and a novel genetic resource useful in variety breeding targeted to strong lodging resistance.

Desert bananas (Musa spp.) are a major fruit crop worldwide for which postharvest quality traits are major determinants for consumer acceptance and adoption of new cultivars. They are thus important targeted traits in breeding yet their genetic basis remains poorly characterized. We report the first QTL mapping study o...

Shade avoidance response (SAR) is an important adaptive mechanism that enables plants to optimize light capture in dense canopies, but excessive shade-induced hypocotyl elongation can negatively affect plant architecture, yield, and quality in Chinese cabbage. In this study, we investigated the genetic basis of SAR usi...
