Genomic Informed Breeding Strategies for Strawberry Yield and Fruit Quality Traits
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Over the last two centuries, breeders have drastically modified the fruit quality of strawberries through artificial selection. However, there remains significant variation in quality across germplasm with scope for further improvements to be made.

The History, Current Status and Future Prospects of Fruit Breeding in Korea
Korean Journal of Breeding Science, 2020 Although small-scaled breeding programs for apples, pears, and grapes were conducted in the 1930s and 1940s, national fruit breeding programs by the Korean government were commenced after the foundation of the National Horticultural Technical Institute ...

Advances in genomics and genome editing for breeding next generation of fruit and nut crops.
Genomics, 2021 Fruit tree crops are an essential part of the food production systems and are key to achieve food and nutrition security. Genetic improvement of fruit trees by conventional breeding has been slow due to the long juvenile phase.

Fruit Breeding in Regard to Color and Seed Hardness: A Genomic View from Pomegranate
Agronomy, 2020 Many fruit trees have been whole-genome sequenced, and these genomic resources provide us with valuable resources of genes related to interesting fruit traits (e.g., fruit color, size and taste) and help to facilitate the breeding progress.

Bridging traditional and new commons: The case of fruit breeding
International Journal of the Commons, 2019 The recent system of fruit breeding and fruit cultivation faces a range of sustainability challenges, specifically an intense usage of plant protection measures, an increased privatization of former common goods, and an overall loss of resilience in the ...

REVIEW OF FRUIT GENETICS AND BREEDING PROGRAMMES AND A NEW EUROPEAN INITIATIVE TO INCREASE FRUIT BREEDING EFFICIENCY [PDF]
Acta Horticulturae, 2012 The European fruit industry is facing economic challenges imposed by increasingly fierce international competition and decreasing fruit consumption, societal demand for a more sustainable production, and biological problems caused by climate changes. Releasing new cultivars that meet these challenges is a major goal of all European breeding programmes.
