In olive, breeding programs last represented by tandem repeats (Barghini et al., 2014). Up to about 30 years on average (Lavee et al., 2014; Rallo et al., 2016) now, only intraspecific crosses have been used for olive mapping, and have been limited to the empirical selection of a few sporadic and very early studies were performed with dominant markers intraspecific crosses (Rallo et al., 2008), or to clonal selection (de la Rosa et al., 2003; Wu et al., 2004; Aabidine et al., 2010; (Manaï et al., 2007; Gomes et al., 2008; Trapero et al., 2013; Khadari et al., 2010).

Six species of Juglans, introduced into forests and parks of Kyiv, were studied, namely, J. ailantifolia Carrière, J. cinerea L., J. mandshurica Maxim., J. nigra L., J. regia L., and J. subcordiformis Dode, cultivar J. regia var. maxima DC. ′Dessert′ and four probable hybrids (♀J. subcordiformis × ♂J. ailantifolia; ♀J. nigra × ♂J. mandshurica; ♀J. cinerea × ♂J. regia and ♀J. regia × ♂J. mandshurica). Due to the targeted introduction of different duration, the invasive species are at the beginning stage of forming their populations, sometimes amounting to naturalization. The species-wise specificity of introduced representatives of different ages (from one-year-old seedlings to generative trees), belonging to the genus Juglans, was determined. J. regia and J. nigra are the richest in the content of secondary metabolites; J. cinerea and J. mandshurica have a medium level, and J. ailantifolia and J. subcordiformis-a low level.

China Lijie Zhang1,2, Xiujun Lu1,2, Qiang Zhou1, Jifeng Deng1,2* 1College of Forestry, Shenyang Agricultural University, Shenyang, Liaoning Province, People’s Republic of China 2Key Laboratory of Forest Tree genetics and Breeding of Liaoning Province, Shenyang, Liaoning Province, People’s Republic of China Received: 5 October 2020 Accepted: 18 December 2020 Abstract The eastern Liaoning Province of China has rich morphological diversity in walnut fruit, which is beneficial for selecting promising characters for marketability purposes. However, only a few reports have addressed morphological diversity in this region. In this study, J. mandshurica nuts and kernels from six geographical provenances were assessed for morphological traits, such as nut longitudinal diameter, nut lateral diameter, nut transverse diameter, mean diameter, nut weight, kernel weight, shell thickness, nut sutural thickness, kernel percentage, and index of roundness. Morphological traits proved to be quite variable and showed differences both within and among the geographical provenances. The frequency distribution of the traits had single peaks and followed a normal distribution. Principal component analysis revealed that 81.062% of the total variance was explained by the first three components. An unweighted PGM with averaging cluster analysis divided the geographical provenances into two groups; cluster I, containing five geographical provenances, and cluster II, containing only one. The study highlighted that the traits related to nut weight were of importance for discrimination, and Fushun is the optimal geographical provenance for breeding and selection.

E-mail [email protected] Received: 22 July 2013 Returned for revision: 11 September 2013 Accepted: 14 October 2013 Published electronically: 3 December 2013 † Background and Aims Unlike other taxa in Juglandaceae or in closely related families, which are anemophilous, Platycarya strobilacea has been suggested to be entomophilous. In Juglandaceae, Juglans and Carya show hetero- dichogamy, a reproductive strategy in which two morphs coexist in a population and undergo synchronous reciprocal sex changes. However, there has been no study focusing on heterodichogamy in the other six or seven genera, includ- ing Platycarya. † Methods Inflorescence architecture, sexual expression and pollination biology were examined in a P. strobilacea population in Japan. Flowering phenology was monitored daily for 24 trees in 2008 and 27 in 2009. Flower visitors and inhabitants were recorded or collected from different sexes and stages. † Key results The population of P. strobilacea showed heterodichogamous phenology with protogynous and duodi- chogamous–protandrous morphs. This dimorphism in dichogamy was associated with distinct inflorescence morph- ologies.Thrips pollination was suggested bythe frequent presence of thrips withattached pollen grains,the scarcityof other insect visitors, the synchronicity of thrips number in male spikes with the maturation of female flowers, and morphological characters shared with previously reported thrips-pollinated plants. Male spikes went through two consecutive stages: bright yellow and strong-scented M1 stage, and brownish and little-scented M2 stage.

The objective of this study was natural and urban forests. Thousand cankers disease to characterize limits to, and variation within, the host is a new, recent example and is caused by the complex range of P. juglandis and infer the extent to which of walnut twig beetle, Pityophthorus juglandis, and hosts might constrain the geographic distribution of the fungus, Geosmithia morbida, on susceptible hosts, the insect. We examined colonization and reproduc- notably some Juglans spp. and Pterocarya spp. Host tion by P. juglandis in no-choice laboratory experi- colonization by P. juglandis may be particularly ments with 11 Juglans spp., one Pterocarya sp., and important for disease development, but the beetle’s two Carya spp. over 2 years and found that all but the host range is not known. In the United States and Italy, Carya spp. were hosts. Reproduction was generally greater on Juglans californica, J. hindsii, and J. nigra, than on J.

  • Juglandaceae (Walnuts)
    A start for archaeological Nutters: some edible nuts for archaeologists. By Dorian Q Fuller 24.10.2007 Institute of Archaeology, University College London A “nut” is an edible hard seed, which occurs as a single seed contained in a tough or fibrous pericarp or endocarp. But there are numerous kinds of “nuts” to do not behave according to this anatomical definition (see “nut-alikes” below). Only some major categories of nuts will be treated here, by taxonomic family, selected due to there ethnographic importance or archaeological visibility. Species lists below are not comprehensive but representative of the continental distribution of useful taxa. Nuts are seasonally abundant (autumn/post-monsoon) and readily storable. Some good starting points: E. A. Menninger (1977) Edible Nuts of the World. Horticultural Books, Stuart, Fl.; F. Reosengarten, Jr. (1984) The Book of Edible Nuts. Walker New York) Trapaceae (water chestnuts) Note on terminological confusion with “Chinese waterchestnuts” which are actually sedge rhizome tubers (Eleocharis dulcis) Trapa natans European water chestnut Trapa bispinosa East Asia, Neolithic China (Hemudu) Trapa bicornis Southeast Asia and South Asia Trapa japonica Japan, jomon sites Anacardiaceae Includes Piastchios, also mangos (South & Southeast Asia), cashews (South America), and numerous poisonous tropical nuts. Pistacia vera true pistachio of commerce Pistacia atlantica Euphorbiaceae This family includes castor oil plant (Ricinus communis), rubber (Hevea), cassava (Manihot esculenta), the emblic myrobalan fruit (of India & SE Asia), Phyllanthus emblica, and at least important nut groups: Aleurites spp. Candlenuts, food and candlenut oil (SE Asia, Pacific) Archaeological record: Late Pleistocene Timor, Early Holocene reports from New Guinea, New Ireland, Bismarcks; Spirit Cave, Thailand (Early Holocene) (Yen 1979; Latinis 2000) Rincinodendron rautanenii the mongongo nut, a Dobe !Kung staple (S.

R. 2013. Genetic and morphological variation in Iranian olive (Olea europaea L.) germplasm. Crop Breeding Journal 3(2):99-106. Olive cultivars with specific characteristics have been developed thanks to Iran’s particular climatic conditions and long-term olive cultivation. The genetic variation and relationships among 40 olive cultivars, as well as 17 unknown genotypes from the national olive collection orchard at Tarom Research Station, Zanjan, Iran, were evaluated using SSR markers. Using 10 microsatellite primer pairs, 43 polymorphic bands were obtained on 57 olive genotypes. In addition to molecular markers, 14 morphological traits were measured in all olive genotypes. Based on discriminant and cluster analysis, the group of Iranian genotypes showed the greatest genetic distance from Spanish, Greek, Syrian, Italian and French groups. Based on cluster analysis using molecular and morphological data, most of the unknown genotypes showed high genetic similarity with genotypes from Spain and Syria. Despite the high genetic variation among cultivars in each group, geographical origin had significant impact on observed variability using Shannon’s information index and polymorphism information of olive accessions.
