Establishment and Optimization of Micropropagation System for Southern Highbush Blueberry

Horticulturae, 2023
The optimization of micropropagation for blueberries is crucial due to the growing blueberry industry and demand for plantlets. This study focused on four stages: explant sterilization, in vitro establishment, in vitro proliferation, and ex vitro rooting,

Do Buzz-Pollinating Bumble Bees Facilitate Honey Bee Pollination in Southern Highbush Blueberry Through Increasing Pollen Release? [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Diversified pollinator assemblages can provide pollinator facilitation and complementarity in cropping systems. When bumble bees are present, honey bees are no more capable of accumulating pollen, but there are more direct interactions between bees that can improve cross pollination.

Genetic insights into bacterial wilt resistance using genomic prediction and association mapping in blueberry. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Bacterial wilt, caused by Ralstonia spp., poses a major threat to blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum) production due to its persistence and rapid spread through soil and infected stock, highlighting the need for genetic insights to guide breeding strategies. This study investigated the genetic basis of bacterial wilt resistance in blueberry using

Assessing Whether Habitat Suitability Models Can Predict Abundance of an Insect Pest. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Our research addresses a critical question in pest management: whether habitat suitability models can effectively predict pest abundance across landscapes. We found two models (BioClim and Random Forest) that captured the expected wedge‐shaped relationship, with substantial variation in predictive capacity among models.

Genome-Wide Identification of Loci Associated With Phenology-Related Traits and Their Adaptive Variations in a Highbush Blueberry Collection

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Genetic variation in phenological traits is the key in expanding production areas of crops. Southern highbush blueberry (SHB) is a blueberry cultivar group adapted to warmer climates and has been developed by multiple interspecific hybridizations between

Chloroplast genome assemblies and comparative analyses of commercially important Vaccinium berry crops

Scientific Reports, 2022
Vaccinium is a large genus of shrubs that includes a handful of economically important berry crops. Given the numerous hybridizations and polyploidization events, the taxonomy of this genus has remained the subject of long debate.
