This review describes in vitro mutation induction methods in fruits and the in vitro selection
procedures available for early screening. Results obtained through in vitro mutation …

The plant family Rosaceae consists of over 100 genera and 3,000 species that include many
important fruit, nut, ornamental, and wood crops. Members of this family provide high-value …

The development of saturated linkage maps using transferable markers, restriction fragment
length polymorphisms, and micro-satellites has provided a foundation for fruit tree genetics …

Linkage maps for the apple cultivars 'Prima'and 'Fiesta'were constructed using RFLP, RAPD,
isozyme, AFLP, SCAR and microsatellite markers in a 'Prima'×'Fiesta'progeny of 152 …

A genomic DNA library enriched with AG/CT repeats has been developed from the peach
cultivar 'Merrill O'Henry'. The enrichment method was efficient, with 61% of the clones …

The identification of genes involved in variation of peach fruit quality would assist breeders
in creating new cultivars with improved fruit quality. Major genes and quantitative trait loci …

The availability of a high quality linkage map is essential for the detection and the analysis of
quantitative traits. Such a map should cover a significant part of the genome, should be …

A set of 109 microsatellite primer pairs recently developed for peach and cherry have been
studied in the almond× peach F 2 progeny previously used to construct a saturated Prunus …

Populus deltoides, P. nigra, and P. trichocarpa are the most important species for poplar
breeding programs worldwide. In addition, Populus has become a model for fundamental …

A map with 246 markers (11 isozymes and 235 RFLPs) was constructed using an
interspecific F 2 population between almond (cv Texas) and peach (cv Earlygold). RFLPs …
