Evaluation of Rosa germplasm resources and analysis of floral fragrance components in R. rugosa
Rosa rugosa (Rosaceae) is an important functional plant used in food products, tea, and aromatherapy. Characteristics of R. rugosa varieties based on the biological traits and floral fragrant components were studied by applying an analytic hierarchy ...

Cut-rose production in response to planting density in two contrasting cultivars [PDF]
Growing in lower planting density, rose plants produce more assimilates, which can be used to produce more and/or heavier flowering shoots. The effect of planting density was investigated during a period including the first five flowering flushes of a ...

Characterization of Genes Involved in the Formation of Aroma Volatiles in "Charentais" Melon Fruit [PDF]
Volatiles esters impart distinct characteristics to the fruit quality. "Charentais" cantaloupe melon (Cucumis melo "cantalupensis") is characterized by abundant sweetness and aromatic flavour.

Functional characterization of a melon alcohol acyl-transferase gene family involved in the biosynthesis of ester volatiles. Identification of the crucial role of a threonine residue for enzyme activity [PDF]
Volatile esters, a major class of compounds contributing to the aroma of many fruit, are synthesized by alcohol acyl-transferases (AAT). We demonstrate here that, in Charentais melon (Cucumis melo var.

Essentially Derived Varieties in Ornamentals [PDF]
The concept of Essentially derived varieties (EDVs) was introduced in the UPOV 1991 act to protect the interests of the breeder of the initial variety. When a variety is considered as an EDV, authorisation for commercial exploitation is needed from the ...

A universal primer for isolation of fragments of a gene encoding phytoene desaturase for use in virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) studies [PDF]
We have been using Virus-Induced Gene Silencing (VIGS) to test the function of genes that are candidates for involvement in floral senescence. Although VIGS is a powerful tool for assaying the effects of gene silencing in plants, relatively few taxa have
