Over the years, original names, have been lost' abandoned, and records about the cultivars, including many olive trees that now extend Natural outcrossing has led to the development of feral or escape over much of southern Australia. have emigrated to Since 1950, many migrants from regions bordering the Mediterranean to over $A100 million per Australia creating a demand for orive products that now amounts been planted in annum. To cater for this increased demand, numerous olive groves have the olive industry depends Australia, many financed by large investors.

These topics were the focus of this thesis. such as Kalamata, The results from cultivar identification showed that while some cultivars, and Mission picual, and Manzanillo, exhibited little genetic variation, others such as Verdale could be considered as showed such a high level of genetic variation that some accessions the Verdale group were separate cultivars. It appears likely that some of the accessions within misnaming of cultivars was either misnamed or that errors were made during propagation. The fingerprint obtained clearly demonstrated for the accession of Calamata from Davis. The DNA In another for this accession could not be distinguished from that obtained for Manzanillo. as Manzanillo' The instance, an accession of Mission also produced the same DNA fingerprint that is now used DNA furgerprints developed in this study have formed the basis for a database for a commercial identification service to growers' to a large extent on the For any crop species, the gains that can be made from selection depend trees was estimated genetic variability of the population.

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.

  • Irrigation and Water Quality for Olive.Pdf
    Sustainable irrigation scheduling and water quality for olives Kostas Chartzoulakis ELGO, Institute for Olive Tree, Subtropical Plants and Grapevines, Agrokipio 731 00, Chania, Crete, Greece Abstract Olive trees can grow without irrigation in areas with annual rainfall of 400-600 mm, but for high yields irrigation during the dry months is essential. The critical growth stages for water for olive are: 1) the bud differentiation 2) the flowering and fruit-set and 3) the pit hardening and rapid fruit development. Water deficits may result in reduced number of inflorescences, production of imperfect flowers, flower drop and reduction of the fruit set percentage. Furthermore, it reduces the annual shoot length, leaf area, leaf number and next years‟ yield. Adequate soil water increase the number of fruits (mostly to trees with small or medium production) and the total oil production per plant, while fruit oil content is reduced from 0 to 10%. Irrigation may reduce polyphenol content and increase saturated fatty acids, while K232, K220 values and organoleptic olive oil characteristics are not affected. The irrigation requirements of olive tree vary according to the cultivar and the growth stage. Olive tree is considered as moderately salt tolerant and recent studies suggest that olives can be irrigated with water containing 3200 mg/l of salt (ECw of 5 dS/m) producing new growth at leaf Na levels of 0.4-0.5% d.w. Salt tolerance in olives appears to be cultivar-dependent and is likely due to control of net salt import to the shoot. High salinity generally reduces olive yield. Salinity increases or does not affect oil content of the fruit, although the extent of this reduction changes with cultivar.

  • Genetic Fingerprinting of Palestinian Olive (Olea Europea L.) Cultivars Using SNP Markers
    Jordan Journal of Agricultural Sciences, Volume 5, No.3, 2009 Genetic Fingerprinting of Palestinian Olive (Olea europea L.) Cultivars Using SNP Markers Rezq A. Basheer-Salimia* , Murad K. Awad * and Panagiotis K. Kalaitzis ** ABSTRACT The study of the genetic relationships among Palestinian olive cultivars is very important in order to assess their genetic diversity and structural details. A collection of five cultivars including Roomi, Souri, Improved Nabali, Barenge K18 and Wild Type were analyzed by using the sequences of two genes' fragments in which a panel of twenty-five Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified. It is found that this group of SNPs is not efficient enough to discriminate among all of the cultivars. However, it is useful for varietal survey and construction of a database of Palestinian olive cultivars and for providing additional information that could constitute the basis for a rational scheme of breeding programs. Keywords: Genetic fingerprinting, SNP markers, Olive (Olea europea L.). INTRODUCTION The archaeological findings demonstrate that the Syrian- Palestinian region was the center of origin of olive The Olive (Olea europea L.) is the most important cultivation (Zohary and Hopf, 1994; Remesal- crop in Palestinian agriculture in terms of area covered Rodriguez, 1996; Basheer-Salimia, 2004). as well as economic returns. It covers about (100000) Genetically, olive, an ancient tree (Lopes et al., hectares distributed all over the West Bank and Gaza 2004), is an outcrossing diploid species (2n = 46) (Reale strip and it is distinguished as the major tree in the rain et al., 2006) cultivated throughout the Mediterranean fed areas, covering about 45% of the total cultivated area basin (Reale et al., 2006; Taamalli et al., 2006).

Bagé, RS, Zip Code 96401-970, Brazil. Accepted 21 December, 2012 Many scientific and technological fields make use of biotechnology. Among the most important applications of biotechnology in agriculture are large-scale commercial micropropagation, genetic transformation and the development of transgenic varieties, embryo rescue in plant breeding programs, genotyping based on DNA markers, studies of genetic evolution and diversity, and genome sequencing. These myriad applications of modern biotechnology and molecular biology are being applied to the olive tree, a crop cultivated for thousands of years in many places of the world and whose products are consumed globally. The selection and development of olive cultivars by conventional breeding methods is costly and time consuming, therefore, the application of biotechnology procedures and techniques, such as in vitro cultivation, molecular markers, and genomic and genetic transformation in this species may facilitate the improvement of important traits of this crop, such as biotic and abiotic resistance and tolerance, yield performance and oil quality. In this review, we present current applications of modern biotechnology and molecular biology in olive species. Key words: Olea europaea, tissue culture, molecular markers, genetic transformation, genomic diversity. INTRODUCTION Olive (Olea europaea L.) is a perennial plant species that combination of techniques that permit the manipulation is widely cultivated and consumed worldwide, including in and use of microorganisms, plants and animals with the Brazil.
