Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the papers and posters presented at the Eucarpia Fruit Breeding Section Meeting held at Wädenswil/Einsiedeln, Switzerland from August 30 to September 3, 1993. It gives an overview of the latest trends in temperate fruit breeding in Europe and overseas. Three subjects were considered in special workshops: durability of scab resistance in apple, biotechnology and molecular markers. One important aim of modern fruit breeding is stable resistance to pests and diseases. Molecular markers might help to identify the genetic basis of important characters related to disease and pest resistance and components of yield and quality. Gene transfer has been successfully applied in several fruit species. However, public opinion in many countries does not favour this new technology and its products. Despite these new approaches, traditional breeding methods still predominate; many aspects of traditional breeding are considered in this book. Genetic resources and their exploitation are dealt with in a special chapter. Aspects of breeding minor crops such as walnut, almond, hippophae, cornel, etc. are also considered. Progress in Temperate Fruit Breeding is meant for fruit breeders, pomologists, lecturers, students and growers.

Download or read book Introgressing Multiple Disease Resistance Alleles Into Elite Apple Cultivars by DNA-informed Breeding written by Feixiong Luo and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major apple diseases cause significant damage to apple production worldwide because highly susceptible cultivars are widely planted, particularly for apple foliar mildew, fire blight, and blue mold. Diseases losses can be minimized if cultivars with durable resistance are planted. Most sources of resistance are apple wild relatives that usually have poor fruit quality. Developing cultivars with durable resistance combined with required elite fruit quality phenotypically is difficult and time-consuming. DNA markers would be useful for efficiently identifying suitable offspring by the detection of disease resistance alleles and genome-wide tracking of DNA segments from apple wild relatives. The objectives of this project were to: 1) develop DNA tests for apple foliar mildew (source: 'White Angel'), fire blight (source: 'Enterprise'), and blue mold resistance (source: Malus sieversii PI 613981); and 2) demonstrate efficient introgression for blue mold resistance. For creating new DNA tests, four families used were 'Fuji' x 'White Angel' (n = 102) and 'Golden Delicious' x 'White Angel' (n = 92) for mildew and 'Enterprise' x T1190 (n = 219) for fire blight, and 'Gala' x PI 613981 (n = 89) for blue mold. For introgression of blue mold resistance, the families used were GMAL4593-128 and -175 ['Gala' x PI 613981] x T1190 [BpMADS4-transgenic 'Pinova' x 'Idared'] (n = 141). Apple 20K SNP array data was used to trace the inheritance of M. sieversii DNA segments. Three locus-specific DNA tests, Md-Plw8-SSR, Md-Ea7-SSR, and Md-Pe3-SSR, were successfully developed, which were able to distinguish susceptible individuals from resistant ones. These DNA tests themselves or combined with other disease resistance DNA tests could be used to efficiently detect the presence of resistance alleles from multiple sources. Within two years, among greenhouse-grown 141 individuals, three were selected with the resistance allele, the least proportion of M. sieversii DNA segments, and favorable positions of these segments on the same chromosome as the resistance allele. The combined use of a locus-specific DNA test, high-density SNP array data, and rapid cycle breeding was successfully demonstrated. Outcomes of this project could empower the development of new apple cultivars with durable resistance and elite fruit quality.

This book was released on 2022-03-18 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents deliberations on the molecular and genomic mechanisms underlying the interactions of crop plants with the biotic stresses caused by insects, bacteria, fungi, viruses, and oomycetes, etc. important to develop resistant crop varieties. Knowledge on the advanced genetic and genomic crop improvement strategies including molecular breeding, transgenics, genomic-assisted breeding and the recently emerging genome editing for developing resistant varieties in fruit crops is imperative for addressing FPNEE (food, health, nutrition. energy and environment) security. Whole genome sequencing of these crops followed by genotyping-by-sequencing have facilitated precise information about the genes conferring resistance useful for gene discovery, allele mining and shuttle breeding which in turn opened up the scope for 'designing' crop genomes with resistance to biotic stresses. The nine chapters, each dedicated to a fruit crop in this volume, deliberate on different types of biotic stress agents and their effects on and interaction with the crop plants; enumerate the available genetic diversity with regard to biotic stress resistance among available cultivars; illuminate on the potential gene pools for utilization in interspecific gene transfer; present brief on the classical genetics of stress resistance and traditional breeding for biotic stress resistance; depict the success stories of genetic engineering for developing biotic stress resistant varieties; discuss on molecular mapping of genes and QTLs underlying biotic stress resistance and their marker-assisted introgression into elite varieties; enunciate different emerging genomics-aided techniques including genomic selection, allele mining, gene discovery and gene pyramiding for developing resistant crop varieties with higher quantity and quality of yield; and also elaborate some case studies on genome editing focusing on specific genes for generating disease and insect resistant crops.

This book was released on 1977 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prevention or eradication of pests and diseases in temperate fruit crops has become a major component of production costs, and the environmental hazards of many of the numerous chemical treatments used are causing increasing anxiety. Therefore, in most of the present conventional fruit breeding programmes disease resistance has become an important objective, and there have been some notable successes; but progress is slow because of the long generation time and the genetic complexity of most tree fruit species. The complexity is such that cultivars can only be maintained as clones and it is unlikely that indentical genotypes could ever be sexually produced.

This book was released on 2004-07-08 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assists policymakers in evaluating the appropriate scientific methods for detecting unintended changes in food and assessing the potential for adverse health effects from genetically modified products. In this book, the committee recommended that greater scrutiny should be given to foods containing new compounds or unusual amounts of naturally occurring substances, regardless of the method used to create them. The book offers a framework to guide federal agencies in selecting the route of safety assessment. It identifies and recommends several pre- and post-market approaches to guide the assessment of unintended compositional changes that could result from genetically modified foods and research avenues to fill the knowledge gaps.

Book excerpt: In the tradition of Silent Spring, Raoul Robinson's Return to Resistance calls for a revolution. Traditional plant breeding techniques have led us to depend more and more on chemical pesticides to protect ourcrops. Return to Resistance shows gardeners, farmers, and plant breeders how to use a long-neglected technique to create hardy new plant varieties that are naturally resistant to pests and disease. Horizontal resistance breeding has been largely ignored in this century due to the popularity and apparent successes of the Mendelian geneticists. However the colossal, unrecognized failure of m.
