QTL Analysis and CAPS Marker Development Linked with Russet in Pear (Pyrus spp.)

open access: yesPlants, 2022
The fruit skin types of pear (Pyrus spp.) are divided into russet, smooth, and intermediate. One of the important traits in pear breeding programs is russet on pear fruit skin because it affects the commercial value.

Effects of Polyhalite Fertilization on Skin Quality of Potato Tuber

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
The protective peel of potato tuber consists of periderm tissue, the outmost cell layers of which contain corky cell walls and are termed “skin”. The skin protects the tuber from water loss and pathogen invasion, and its visual appearance is a highly ...

Crop load, fruit russeting, vegetative growth traits and leaf nutrient effects as a function of customized foliar nutritive fluids in Gale Gala apple (Malus × domestica) in dry temperate environment

open access: yesThe Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2023
The study exploited the clonal rootstocks for bio-efficacy testing of water soluble customized nutrient (WSCN), viz. K2O:S:Mg:Ca:Zn:B (6:11:5:0.3:0.3:0.4, w/w) on agronomic performance, fruit yield and quality characteristics on Gale Gala apple (Malus ×

Feasibility of Using Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence Techniques in Detection of Some Apple Pests and Diseases

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
There are many methods to detect plant pests and diseases, but they are primarily time-consuming and costly. Computer vision techniques can recognize the pest- and disease-damaged fruits and provide clues to identify and treat the diseases and pests in ...

Postharvest performance of 17 apple accessions grown in NE Spain after long-term cold storage

open access: yesJournal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2023
In this work, 17 accessions from the Apple Germplasm Bank of the EEAD-CSIC were harvested and stored in a cold room for six months, at low temperature (1-1.5 °C) and controlled relative humidity (85-90%).

Transfer learning from indoor to outdoor in cultivar testing: application to russeting detection

open access: yes, 2022
International audiencePostharvest measurements in digital horticulture are nowadays well-calibrated. They are done indoors, i.e., in a controlled environment, with chosen lighting systems and optimized positioning of the sensors to probe the harvested ...

Differential Lipid Composition and Gene Expression in the Semi-Russeted “Cox Orange Pippin” Apple Variety

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Russeting is characterized by a particular rough and brown phenotype, which is mainly due to the accumulation of suberin in the inner part of the epidermal cell walls. In our previous bulk transcriptomic analysis, comparing fully russeted, and waxy apple

Reducing russeting of organically grown Elstar to increase quality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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.

Threatened cockatoo adapts foraging strategy to survive habitat loss from fire

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Fire regimes are changing across the globe as a result of human‐induced climate change. For granivorous bird species, changes in fire regimes can affect seed availability and the persistence of populations. We investigated the foraging behaviour of Glossy Black Cockatoos Calyptorhynchus lathami halmaturinus, a resource specialist, following large‐scale

Role of the tomato MARS1/ROUGH gene encoding a LYSINE‐SPECIFIC HISTONE DEMETHYLASE 1 in adventitious root and fruit skin formation

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The tomato mars1/rough mutant displays enhanced root regeneration and rough fruits due to ectopic cell proliferation. The causal gene encodes a lysine‐specific histone demethylase that normally maintains gene silencing. Its loss alters histone methylation, upregulating several genes, including those B‐type cyclins involved in tissue‐specific cellular ...
