`Oro A' Peach Germplasm

Whole-Genome Analysis of Diversity and SNP-Major Gene Association in Peach Germplasm

Peach was domesticated in China more than four millennia ago and from there it spread world-wide. Since the middle of the last century, peach breeding programs have been very dynamic generating hundreds of new commercial varieties, however, in most cases such varieties derive from a limited collection of parental lines (founders). This is one reason for the observed low levels of variability of...

Development and Evaluation of a 9K SNP Array for Peach by Internationally Coordinated SNP Detection and Validation in Breeding Germplasm

Although a large number of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers covering the entire genome are needed to enable molecular breeding efforts such as genome wide association studies, fine mapping, genomic selection and marker-assisted selection in peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] and related Prunus species, only a limited number of genetic markers, including simple sequence repeats (SSRs...

Phony Peach and Peach Mosaic

Congenital oro-motor disorders.

Children with congenital oro-motor disorders (COMD) are not numerous. However, as a group, they merit special consideration as management of diseases leading to COMD is complex, owing to their protracted and varying course, the diverse areas of health care involved, and the significant amount of resources their treatment requires.1 The term oro-motor disorders (OMD) refers to a group of disease...

Gonococcal oro- and nasopharyngeal infection.

Although known to occur in the past, it is only in recent years that the incidence and importance of oral infection by the gonococcus has come to be assessed. The first case of gonococcal pharyngitis was described by Fiumara, Wise, and Many (1967). Thatcher, McCraney, Kellogg, and Whaley (1969) found no gonococci in the urethra and rectum in a routine screening by culture of 505 military subjec...
