GWAS Analysis in peanut
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have revealed numerous links between traits and chromosome positions of crops plants, making this method an effective means of genetic analysis of phenotypic traits in diversity panels. In pe ...

Distinguishing disomic and tetrasomic inheritance in peanut
Because peanut is an allotetraploid crop, it is usually considered as a diploid in genetic analysis because it follows fully disomic inheritance, meaning that chromosomes from the same subgenome pair and can recombine, whereas hom ...

Dissecting the interaction of potato cold tolerance and tuberization
Potato is regarded as a cold sensitive crop and suffers cold stress especially in (tuber) seedling stage in late spring. Agronomic practices such as late planting can mitigate the effects of early season cold stress. However, ther ...

Exploring susceptibility and resistance against Botrytis cinerea in the Rosaceae family
Botrytis cinerea is a devastating necrotrophic fungal pathogen, commonly found at all stages of production for a broad range of crops and ornamentals. Despite decades of research, no effective resistance against Botrytis cinerea h ...

Characterization of NLR resistance genes in Cucurbita
Breeding for resistance (R) genes remains one of the most direct method of generating resistance in plants against pests and pathogens. Most R genes that have been characterized belong to the nucleotide-binding-site-leucine-rich-r ...
