A proteometabolomic study of Actinidia deliciosa fruit development

Journal of Proteomics, 2018
Green-fleshed kiwifruit is worldwide appreciated for its flavor and macronutrients that are related to its physiological development. Fruit ripe stage for harvesting does not correspond to an optimal edible condition due to firmness/acidity pome characteristics; this is overcome with postharvest fruit processing.

DNA dodecaploid plants detected among somaclones of Actinidia deliciosa var. deliciosa cv. Hayward

Plant Cell Reports, 1995
Ninety two adventitious shoots (somaclones) were regenerated from leaf-derived callus of Actinidia deliciosa var. deliciosa cv. Hayward. Each somaclone was multiplied in vitro through axillary bud culture to produce several individual clonal shoots. A total of 671 shoots were exflasked but only 223 (33%) resulted in rooted plants.

Genetic Transformation in Actinidia deliciosa (Kiwifruit)

1994
Kiwifruit (Actinidia sp.) is a dioecious woody fruiting species that in the last few years has gained increasing interest from the agro-food industries. The fruit of Actinidia has high levels of vitamins, mineral salts, and fibers when compared with the traditional fruits.

Molecular identification of sex in Actinidia deliciosa var. deliciosa by RAPD markers

Scientia Horticulturae, 2002
Actinidia deliciosa var. deliciosa a dioecious plant species has become very popular for commercial cultivation in the low and mid-Himalayan regions of India. But dioecy represents an important constraint in kiwifruit breeding programmes and also requires identification of male and female genotypes before planting an orchard.

Agrobacterium-Mediated Stable Transformation of Actinidia deliciosa (Kiwi)

Actinidia deliciosa, commonly known as kiwi, is a woody perennial species recognized for its commercially relevant fruits with high levels of vitamin C, potassium, and dietary fiber. This chapter explores an efficient Agrobacterium-mediated stable transformation method for Actinidia, focusing on A.

IDENTIFICATION OF MARKERS FOR SEXUAL DETERMINATION IN ACTINIDIA DELICIOSA.

Acta Horticulturae, 1999
Efforts have been made to clarify the transition from the hermaphroditic to the unisexual condition in staminate and pistillate flowers of Actinidia deliciosa. Besides molecular markers, structural and biochemical markers for sexual determination have been sought through cyto-histological and biochemical investigations.

A natural sex mutant in kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa)

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, 2004
A kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) natural sex mutant is described. The bud mutation occurred in a mature male vine and caused a gender change from male to female. The mutant (ser, sex reversal) carries apparently perfect flowers, with a well developed ovary and styles, but produces pollen that does not germinate and does not fertilise female genotypes.

Vibratory Collection of Actinidia deliciosa (Kiwifruit) Pollen

Annals of Botany, 1994
Abstract Dry, powdery pollen grains were expected from 'buzz pollinated' flower species. However, vibration of Actinidia deliciosa (kiwifruit) anthers (a buzz pollinated species) by a mechanical shaker, at similar vibrations to Bombus terrestris caused clumps of pollen joined by small droplets of tapetal fluid to be ejected.

Gender variation in Actinidia deliciosa, the kiwifruit

Sexual Plant Reproduction, 1991
Flower and fruit characters were measured in ten female, five male and five fruiting male selections of A. deliciosa var deliciosa (A. Chev) Liang and Ferguson. Flowers from female vines had functional pistils, which contained many ovules. Stamens appeared to be fully developed but produced only empty pollen grains.
