Genomewide prediction to target russet formation in apple
Russet formation in apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a superficial skin disorder that detracts from fruit appearance and is likely controlled by many small-effect quantitative trait loci (QTLs). Genomewide prediction has been reported to be an effective

Reducing russeting of organically grown Elstar to increase quality [PDF]
Sales organisations indicated that opportunities for organic apples sales can increase when quality increases, in particular reducing the amount of russeting. The use of copper is probably the most important factor for russeting.

Potato production in the United States: Two‐decade update and future sustainable pathways
Abstract In the United States, agriculture accounts for approximately 10% of total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including contributions from potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) production, a staple crop in the American diet. However, limited research has focused on recent trends in US potato production, particularly the contribution of different ...

We investigated sources of variation in eight egg characteristics capturing the colour, spottiness, shape, and size of 1589 eggs from 687 clutches produced by 330 female common terns (Sterna hirundo) of known age. We found a high repeatability of the eight egg traits, both within clutches and among clutches of the same female. We also observed a within‐

Evolutionarily New Solanaceous DCL2 Family Members Acquire Functions in Tomato
This work demonstrated the expansion of functional Dicer‐like 2 gene family members in the Solanaceae family. ABSTRACT RNA silencing is one of the major defence activities against viral pathogens in plants. Silencing signals are initiated by Dicer‐like proteins (DCLs) to generate viral‐derived small RNAs (sRNAs).

Are U.S. Consumers Tolerant of GM Foods? [PDF]
Genetically modified (GM) foods have caused many controversies. One important controversy relates to tolerance?the impurity rate that is tolerated before a commodity must be labeled as genetically modified.
