Quality of ‘Fuji Suprema’ apples influenced by long-term annual addition of phosphorus to the soil

Ciência Rural, 2018
: Fertilization of apple orchards with phosphorus (P) has received less attention than with nitrogen and potassium. In Brazil, the information about apple response to soil P addition is meager.

Water spectral pattern as a marker for studying apple sensory texture

Advances in Horticultural Science, 2018
Aquaphotomics is a scientific discipline which investigates the water-light interactions in biological systems by using NIR spectroscopy and multivariate analysis to relate water absorption patterns to bio-functionalities.

Advances in QTL mapping for ethylene production in apple (Malus×domestica Borkh.)

Postharvest Biology and Technology, 2014
Abstract Ethylene is a gaseous hormone that coordinates several important physiological processes resulting in the final fruit quality in apple. Due to its genetic heterozygousity, apple offers the possibility to exploit the natural allelic variation existing at the level of two genes involved in the ethylene biosynthetic pathway, Md-ACS1 and Md-ACO1.

Niche differentiation shapes the bacterial diversity and composition of apple

Horticultural Plant Journal, 2023
Microorganisms play an important role in plant growth, health and ecological function. It is necessary to explore the microbial community because of the significant ecological and economic value of apples (Malus x domestica).

Metamitron and Shade Effects on Leaf Physiology and Thinning Efficacy of Malus × domestica Borkh [PDF]

Agronomy, 2020
Thinning strategies, namely shade or photosynthetic inhibitors, rely on the reduction of carbon supply to the fruit below the demand, causing fruit abscission. In order to clarify the subject, seven field trials were carried out in Lleida, Girona, and Sint-Truiden (2017 + 2018), using orchards of ‘Golden’ and ‘Gala’ apple trees. At the stage of 9–14-mm

Genomic Selection for Fruit Quality Traits in Apple (Malus×domestica Borkh.)

PLoS ONE, 2012
The genome sequence of apple (Malus×domestica Borkh.) was published more than a year ago, which helped develop an 8K SNP chip to assist in implementing genomic selection (GS). In apple breeding programmes, GS can be used to obtain genomic breeding values (GEBV) for choosing next-generation parents or selections for further testing as potential ...

Heterologous Expression of the Apple MdbZIP26 Gene in Arabidopsis thaliana Improves Resistance to High Salinity and Drought Stress

Agronomy, 2022
High salinity and drought seriously limit the production of many crops worldwide, including apple (Malus x. domestica Borkh). Members of the bZIP family of transcription factors play important roles in abiotic stress in various plants, but there have ...

Implications of nighttime temperature on metamitron impacts on the photosynthetic machinery functioning of Malus x domestica Borkh

Journal of Plant Physiology, 2021
Metamitron (MET) is a fruitlet thinning compound for apple trees, needing better understanding of its action on leaf energy metabolism, depending on nighttime temperature. A trial under environmental controlled conditions was set with 'Golden Reinders' potted trees, under 25/7.5 and 25/15 °C (diurnal/nighttime temperature), with (MET, 247.5 ppm) or ...

Ancient Plant Glyoxylate/Succinic Semialdehyde Reductases: GLYR1s Are Cytosolic, Whereas GLYR2s Are Localized to Both Mitochondria and Plastids

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Plant NADPH-dependent glyoxylate/succinic semialdehyde reductases 1 and 2 (GLYR1 and GLYR2) are considered to be involved in detoxifying harmful aldehydes, thereby preserving plant health during exposure to various abiotic stresses. Phylogenetic analysis

Reactive oxygen species, antioxidants and the regulation of plant development

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The regulation of axillary bud outgrowth by the interplay between phytohormone and redox signals. Axillary bud outgrowth is regulated by cellular energy status and the balance between phytohormones, notably abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellic acid (GA).
