Combined morphological and multi-omics analyses to reveal the developmental mechanism of Zanthoxylum bungeanum prickles

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim. as an important economic forest, its epidermis bears prickles which complicate the harvesting process and increase the labor costs. To explore the developmental mechanism of prickles, three varieties of Zanthoxylum bungeanum (

Genetic control of prickles in tetraploid blackberry. [PDF]

G3 (Bethesda)
Prickle-free blackberry (Rubus subgenus Rubus) canes are strongly preferred by growers due to food and worker safety concerns and damage to fruit from mechanical injury by prickles.

Discovery of spatial pattern of prickles on stem of Rosa hybrida ‘Red Queen’ and mathematical model of the pattern

Scientific Reports, 2021
The developmental patterns of many organisms are orchestrated by the diffusion of factors. Here, we report a novel pattern on plant stems that appears to be controlled by inhibitor diffusion.

Genetic determinism of prickles in rose [PDF]

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2020
The genetic determinism of prickle in rose is complex, with a major locus on LG3 that controls the absence/presence of prickles on the rose stem. Rose is one of the major ornamental plants. The selection of glabrous cultivars is an important breeding target but remains a difficult task due to our limited genetic knowledge.

Convergent evolution of plant prickles by repeated gene co-option over deep time [PDF]

Science
An enduring question in evolutionary biology concerns the degree to which episodes of convergent trait evolution depend on the same genetic programs, particularly over long timescales. In this work, we genetically dissected repeated origins and losses of

Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Controlling the Development of Prickles in Eggplant by Genome Re-sequencing Analysis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is the third most important crop in the family of Solanaceae. Prickles are considered as the undesirable traits during the plantation of eggplant and the transportation of fruits.

Genetic dissection of stem and leaf rachis prickles in diploid rose using a pedigree-based QTL analysis [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Introduction Prickles are often deemed undesirable traits in many crops, including roses (Rosa sp.), and there is demand for rose cultivars with no or very few prickles.

Transcriptome analysis reveals key genes and pathways for prickle development in Zanthoxylum armatum [PDF]

Heliyon
Zanthoxylum armatum is an economically important tree species. However, well-developed prickles on its stems and leaves pose serious challenges in terms of management and harvesting.
