Linkage of Fruit Shape and Color Genes in Capsicum.

چکیده

N the course of some research on peppers, Capsicum annum (SMITH and I HELSER 1951 ) , conducted at the Citrus Experiment Station, Riverside, California, several striking, heritable fruit characters were noted. Upon further analysis, a chromosome linkage was found to exist between two immature-fruit color genes and a gene determining pepper fruit shape. In addition the fruit shape difference between the two varieties tested was found to be due to a single gene difference.

Differential expression of fatty acid synthase genes, Acl, Fat and Kas, in Capsicum fruit.

The biosynthesis of capsaicinoids in the placenta of chilli fruit is modelled to require components of the fatty acid synthase (FAS) complex. Three candidate genes for subunits in this complex, Kas, Acl, and Fat, isolated based on differential expression, were characterized. Transcription of these three genes was placental-specific and RNA abundance was positively correlated with degree of pung...

Genetic Diversity, Population Structure, and Heritability of Fruit Traits in Capsicum annuum

Cultivated pepper (Capsicum annuum) is a phenotypically diverse species grown throughout the world. Wild and landrace peppers are typically small-fruited and pungent, but contain many important traits such as insect and disease resistance. Cultivated peppers vary dramatically in size, shape, pungency, and color, and often lack resistance traits. Fruit characteristics (e.g. shape and pericarp th...

A linkage group of four genes related to morphological traits in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)

Monogenic inheritance and linkage among four morphological traits of lentil were established on the basis of F1 observations and analysis of 204 F2 plants in a cross for development of pubescence on peduncle, 228 F2 plants in a cross for tendril formation, 574 F2 plants in 5 crosses for flower numbers per peduncle and 464 F2 plants in 4 crosses for flower color under field conditions. Developme...

Effects of anthocyanin and carotenoid combinations on foliage and immature fruit color of Capsicum annuum L.

Shades ranging from violet to black pigmentation in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) are attributed to anthocyanin accumulation. High-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry analysis of violet and black fruit tissue identified a single anthocyanin that was determined to be delphinidin-3-p-coumaroyl-rutinoside-5-glucoside. Leaf tissue of a black-pigmented foliage genotype contained th...

The Genes of Capsicum

Pepper (Capsicum spp.) is one of the most cultivated vegetable and spice crops in the world. Capsicum genetics have been extensively studied, but the most recent Capsicum gene list was published more than a decade ago. Since then, new genes have been described. This updated gene list provides detailed descriptions of genes, including the genes characteristics, the genetic background of the muta...
