High-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) identification and mapping in the sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) genome with genotyping by sequencing (GBS) analysis
(Springer, 2016-12-01)
Sesame (Sesamum indicum L. syn. Sesamum orientale L.) is considered to be the first oil seed crop known to man. Despite its versatile use as an oil seed and a leafy vegetable, sesame is a neglected crop and has not been a ...
Molecular genetic diversity of the Turkish national hazelnut collection and selection of a core set
(Springer, 2017-10)
European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is an economically and nutritionally important nut crop with wild and cultivated populations found throughout Europe and in parts of Asia. This study examined the molecular genetic ...
Genetic mapping of a major dominant gene for resistance to Ralstonia solanacearum in eggplant
(Springer, 2013-01)
Resistance of eggplant against Ralstonia solanacearum phylotype I strains was assessed in a F6 population of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a intra-specific cross between S. melongena MM738 (susceptible) and ...
Barcode DNA length polymorphisms vs fatty acid profiling for adulteration detection in olive oil
(Elsevier, 2017-04)
The aim of this study was to compare the performance of a DNA-barcode assay with fatty acid profile analysis to authenticate the botanical origin of olive oil. To achieve this aim, we performed a PCR-capillary electrophoresis ...
Exploration of three Solanum species for improvement of antioxidant traits in tomato
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2014-08)
Wild tomato species have been widely used for improvement of tomato disease resistance but have not been extensively explored for health-related traits. In this work, three interspecific populations derived from backcrosses ...
Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis for antioxidant and agronomically important traits in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum)
(TÜBİTAK, 2011)
Tomato is one of the most widely produced and consumed vegetable crops worldwide. Plant breeders have usually focused on improvement of horticulturally important traits such as yield, fruit size, shape and colour. With ...
Application of EST-SSRS to examine genetic diversity in eggplant and its close relatives
(TÜBİTAK, 2011)
Within the genus Solanum, the term 'eggplant' encompasses several cultivated species that are used for food and, to a lesser extent, for medicine. Th e use of one common name to describe more than one species and the ...
Development of a SNP-based CAPS assay for the Me1 gene conferring resistance to root knot nematode in pepper
(Springer, 2015-11-01)
Root knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are significant agricultural pests on many crops, including pepper (Capsicum annuum). Host plant resistance offers the most sustainable means of controlling this pest. A cluster of ...
Morphological and molecular diversity in Turkish sesame germplasm and core set selection
(Crop Science Society of America, 2015)
The conservation of plant germplasm is essential to ensure future breeding gains and crop bio-diversity. To be truly useful, such germplasm must be characterized for morphological traits and genetic diversity. In this work, ...
Genome-wide SNP discovery and QTL mapping for fruit quality traits in inbred backcross lines (IBLs) of solanum pimpinellifolium using genotyping by sequencing
(BioMed Central, 2017-01)
Background: Solanum pimpinellifolium has high breeding potential for fruit quality traits and has been used as a donor in tomato breeding programs. Unlocking the genetic potential of S. pimpinellifolium requires high-throughput ...
