Precision Crop Load Management of Apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.) without Chemicals [PDF]
Fruit thinning is an important management practice in commercial apple production. The standard industry practice for crop load management in many countries is based on bloom and/or post-bloom chemical thinning (CT) followed up with hand thinning ...

Cell Division Controls Final Fruit Size in Three Apple (Malus x domestica) Cultivars
Apple (Malus x domestica) fruit size is dependent on cell division and cell expansion, processes that are subsequently regulated by plant hormones such as auxins, gibberellins, and cytokinins.

Microsatellite markers spanning the apple ( Malus x domestica Borkh.) genome [PDF]
A new set of 148 apple microsatellite markers has been developed and mapped on the apple reference linkage map Fiesta x Discovery. One-hundred and seventeen markers were developed from genomic libraries enriched with the repeats GA, GT, AAG, AAC and ATC;

Transcriptomic responses to biotic stresses in Malus x domestica: a meta-analysis study. [PDF]
AbstractRNA-Seq analysis is a strong tool to gain insight into the molecular responses to biotic stresses in plants. The objective of this work is to identify specific and common molecular responses between different transcriptomic data related to fungi, virus and bacteria attacks in Malus x domestica. We analyzed seven transcriptomic datasets in Malus

Temporal fruit microbiome and immunity dynamics in postharvest apple (<i>Malus</i> x <i>domestica</i>). [PDF]
Abstract The plant immune response plays a central role in maintaining a well-balanced and healthy microbiome for plant health. However, insights into how the fruit immune response and the fruit microbiome influence fruit health after harvest are limited. We investigated the temporal dynamics of the fruit microbiota and host defense gene
