Printed on acid-free paper springer.com Preface Tree species are indispensably supportive to human life. Due to their long life cycle and environmental sensitivity, breeding trees to suit day-to-day human needs is a formidable challenge. Whether they are edible as apple, cocoa, mango, citrus, litchi, pear, dates, and coconut or industrially essential as rubber or beverages like coffee and tea, improving yield under optimal, suboptimal, and marginal areas calls for a unified effort from scientists around the world. While the uniqueness of coconut as ‘kalpavriksha’ (Sanskrit-meaning tree of life) makes its presence in every continent from Far East to South America, tree crops like cocoa, oil palm, rubber, apple, peach, grapes, and walnut prove their environmental sensitivity toward tropical, subtropical, and temperate climates. Desert climate is quintessential for date palm. Thus, from soft drinks to breweries to beverages to oil to tyres, the value addition offers a spectrum of products to human kind, enriched with nutritional, environmental, financial, social, and trade-related attributes. Taxonomically, tree crops never confine to few families, but spread over a cross-section of genera, an attribute so unique that contributes immensely to biodiversity even while cultivated on commercial scale. Many of these species encourage other flora to nurture in their vicinity, thus ensuring their integrity toward preserving biodiversity. While wheat, rice, maize, barley, soybean, cassava, and banana make up the major food staples, many fruit-yielding tree species contribute toward nutritional enrichment in human life. The edible part of these species is the source of several nutrients that make additives for the daily human diet, for example, vitamins, sugars, aromas, and flavor compounds, and raw material for food-processing industries. Tree crops face an array of agronomic and horticultural problems in terms of propagation, yield, appearance, quality, diseases and pest control, abiotic stresses, and poor shelf life. Shrinkage of cultivable land and growing demand has enforced these crops to be grown under marginal conditions that call for concerted efforts from breeders to improve these crops substantially. Concerted efforts have not been incurred to bring out the compilation of research done on tree crops grown under both traditional and nontraditional environments. Even if available, they v vi Preface are scattered and also lack comprehensive treatment and wholesomeness. The task of improving yield in tree crops is foremost in the acumen of global agricultural research, and the advancements made in this arena are immense both at conventional and molecular means. This two-volume series on Breeding Plantation Tree Crops dealing both tropical and temperate species separately is a sincere effort toward compiling the research available worldwide and bring them to the reference of scientists, researchers, teachers, students, policy makers, and even planters. It is worthwhile to note that in the forthcoming years, tree crops are to be given much importance on par with annual crops due to carbon trading and nutritional upgradation of the daily diet. Since tropical species are more diverse, the first volume on tropical species contains 16 chapters on fruits and nuts (banana, mango, guava, papaya, grape, date palm, litchi, avocado, and cashew), oil crops (coconut, oil palm, and olive), industrial crops (rubber), and beverages (coffee, tea, and cocoa). The second volume contains temperate fruit species including apple, apricot, almond, citrus, pear, plum, raspberry, and walnut. The chapters were authored by crop-specific experts worldwide. We appreciate the untiring efforts rendered by the authors in ensuring the inclusion of latest advancements and their cooperation in revising their manuscripts timely. A few reviewers spared their precious time in improving the quality manuscripts. We are immensely thankful to them for their valuable help. Finally, we thank Springer for bringing out this series to the readers. Helsinki, Finland S. Mohan Jain Agartala, India P.M.

Gradziel 1 Introduction An adaptation to harsh climates combined with an ability to develop a deep and extensive root system has allowed cultivated and wild almond to exploit a wide variety of ecological niches in its ancestral range in central Asia extending from the Takla Makan desert in western China to the Mediterranean (Kester et al. 1991; Ladizinsky 1999). Almond is also well adapted to mild winter and dry, hot summer conditions due to its low chilling requirement for early bloom, rapid early shoot growth, and high tolerance to summer heat and drought. It is the earliest temperate tree crop to bloom, which limits production to areas relatively free from spring frosts. Because almond is self-sterile, it requires cross-pollination that further acts to promote genetic variability and, therefore, adaptability to new environments. Commercial production is often limited by the need for cross-pollination in orchard systems, particularly in areas where spring storms can reduce both flowering duration and activity of required insect pollinators. A high suscept- ibility to fungal and bacterial diseases of the blossoms, leaves, branches, and fruits also reduces production

  • Integrated Pest Management for Raspberry Beetle
    Integrated Pest Management for Raspberry Beetle Order: Coleoptera Family: Byturidae Species: Byturus unicolor The raspberry beetle, also known as the raspberry fruitworm, is a product contaminant pest found in raspberry fields in Washington. The larvae, or fruitworm, may fall off with the fruit during machine harvest. This pest has often been controlled by a diazinon treatment at 5% bloom, before pollinators are brought into the field. The United States Environmental Protection Agency is seeking to reduce the use of organophosphates, such as diazinon, through higher restrictions and cancellations. New monitoring tools for the raspberry beetle have been developed and tested in Whatcom County. The Rebell® Bianco white sticky trap can be used to detect raspberry beetle levels in a field. This may help in determining what treatment, if any, is Figure 1: Adult raspberry required for control of the pest. beetle on a raspberry bud Biology: The adult raspberry beetle is between 0.15 and 0.2” in length, a reddish brown color with short hairs covering its whole body (see figure 1). Overwintering in the soil, the adult emerges in the spring between mid-April and mid-May depending on soil temperatures. The adults feed on leaves, often on the new primocane leaves, but in areas of high populations they will also feed on upper floricane leaves. Adults are then attracted to flower buds and blooms where mating and, subsequently, ovipositing occurs. Larvae (or fruitworm) emerge from the eggs on the flower or immature fruit and begin feeding on the receptacle. The larvae are between 0.1” and 0.25” in length depending on the time of season.

I will, however, spare members. Fortunately other contributors lighten the burden and I will try to summarise just some of our activities. Between the Committee and its sub-committees and our many contacts, much happens over the course of a year and it is this that makes MAN a successful and much respected group. Also the support we receive from members, from ‘hands-on’ to a few words of encouragement, is much appreciated. The series of Forward Planning seminars continue. One outcome this year was the realisation of the need for a secretary/events organiser to support the ever widening work of the Committee. I am delighted to announce that we have appointed Mrs Marie Ward to the post and she attended her first meeting in May. Marie will be working part-time with the Committee and its officers and she has computer-based skills that will be much used in the future. We continue to develop our research and publication activities. Members will be aware of our first CD, ‘The Herefordshire Pomona’ which has received considerable praise and is now available (thanks to our Webmaster) on e-Bay! The CD was followed by a pack of postcards based on the Pomona. The production of CD2, as it is referred to, or ‘Vintage Fruit’, is now well under way thanks to Richard Wheeler.

La primera población, provenía de Xalapa, México, y fue originalmente colectada y criada sobre pupas de la Mosca Mexicana de la Fruta, Anastrepha ludens Loew (Diptera: Tephritidae). La segunda población, originaria de Athens, Georgia, fue colectada y criada sobre prepupas de avispas de barro, Trypoxylon politum Say (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae). Estudios de PCR de la región ITS2 confi rmaron que ambas poblaciones del parasitoide pertenecen a la misma especie; lo que nos provee de un perfi l molecular taxonómico muy útil debído a que las hembras de las diversas especies de Melittobia son superfi cialmente similares. La amplifi cación del gen de superfi cie de proteina (wsp) de Wolbachia confi rmó la presencia de este endosimbionte en ambas poblaciones.

    DOI: 10.1478/AAPP.982A7 AAPP j Atti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali ISSN 1825-1242 Vol. 98, No. 2, A7 (2020) THE CASSIDINAE AND CRYPTOCEPHALINI (COLEOPTERA CHRYSOMELIDAE) OF SICILY: RECENT RECORDS AND UPDATED CHECKLIST COSIMO BAVIERA a∗ AND DAVIDE SASSI b ABSTRACT. This paper compiles an updated checklist of the Sicilian Cassidinae and Cryptocephalini species (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae, Cassidinae and Cryptocephalinae) starting from a critical bibliographic screening and adding new material, mainly collected by the first author in the last few decades. A total of 61 species is reported, withnew data for many rarely collected taxa. The provided data expand the known distribution of many uncommon species in Sicily. Two species are recorded for the first time: Cassida inopinata Sassi and Borowiec, 2006 and Cryptocephalus (Cryptocephalus) bimaculatus Fabricius, 1781 and two uncertain presences are confirmed: Cassida deflorata Suffrian, 1844 and Cassida nobilis Linné, 1758. The presence of other sixteen species is considered questionable and needs further confirmation. 1. Introduction Leaf beetles are all phytophagous Coleoptera. They are usually of a rather stout build, with a rounded or oval shape, often brightly coloured or with metallic hues. Worldwide some 32500 species in 2114 genera of Chrysomelidae have been described (Slipi´ nski´ et al. 2011), the majority of which occur in the tropics as is the case with numerous other Coleoptera families. Currently, the leaf beetle subfamily Cassidinae comprises the tortoise beetles (Cassidinae s. str.) and the hispine beetles (Hispinae s. str.) (Borowiec 1995; Hsiao and Windsor 1999; Chaboo 2007). So far, the Cassidinae list about 6300 described species within more than 340 genera, being the second most speciose subfamily of leaf beetles (Borowiec and Swi˛etoja´ nska´ 2014).

BMC Plant Biology (2020) 20:2 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12870-019-2171-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Using whole-genome SNP data to reconstruct a large multi-generation pedigree in apple germplasm Hélène Muranty1*† , Caroline Denancé1†, Laurence Feugey1, Jean-Luc Crépin2, Yves Barbier2, Stefano Tartarini3, Matthew Ordidge4, Michela Troggio5, Marc Lateur6, Hilde Nybom7, Frantisek Paprstein8, François Laurens1 and Charles-Eric Durel1 Abstract Background: Apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.) is one of the most important fruit tree crops of temperate areas, with great economic and cultural value. Apple cultivars can be maintained for centuries in plant collections through grafting, and some are thought to date as far back as Roman times. Molecular markers provide a means to reconstruct pedigrees and thus shed light on the recent history of migration and trade of biological materials. The objective of the present study was to identify relationships within a set of over 1400 mostly old apple cultivars using whole-genome SNP data (~ 253 K SNPs) in order to reconstruct pedigrees. Results: Using simple exclusion tests, based on counting the number of Mendelian errors, more than one thousand parent-offspring relations and 295 complete parent-offspring families were identified. Additionally, a grandparent couple was identified for the missing parental side of 26 parent-offspring pairings. Among the 407 parent-offspring relations without a second identified parent, 327 could be oriented because one of the individuals was an offspring in a complete family or by using historical data on parentage or date of recording.
