Este trabajo surgió de la idea de Don Boris Duralija, profesor de horticultura, de la facultad de agricultura de la universidad de Zagreb y gracias a la coordinadora de relaciones internacionales Doña Ivana Prosinecki pudo empezar a hacerse realidad mi matricula de TFC. En septiembre del 2014 iniciaba mi Erasmus en Croacia y tras una asignatura de producción agrícola sostenible él quedó interesado en la información que había podido recoger de los propios apuntes tomados en la ETSIA y me propuso el comenzar este proyecto, de manera que contacté directamente con el que había sido mi profesor de horticultura Don José María Durán, que en paz descanse, del que todos tendremos siempre buenos recuerdos. Él me informó y facilitó diversos contactos de viveristas y empresas las cuales me sirvieron de gran ayuda. Por lo que a la vuelta de las navidades, en enero de 2015, comenzaron las reuniones periódicas con Boris, mientras él me recomendaba artículos, por mi parte continuaba consultando y buscando más información, cada dos semanas se iba haciendo exposiciones a los alumnos y compañeros, de los que también tengo que hacer constancia de su ayuda mostrada a lo largo de todo el erasmus, que sin el confort, ayuda y seguridad proporcionada seguramente no hubiese tomado dicha decisión de comenzar el proyecto en un país extranjero. De manera que llegado junio 2015 una vez terminado, me propusieron el defender el proyecto ante jurado en dicha universidad, lo cual hice consiguiendo la máxima puntuación con un excelente. A mi vuelta a España, por medio de recomendaciones de otros profesores, conseguí contactar con Don Pedro Hoyos Echevarría del cual he de agradecerle todo su esfuerzo y sus periódicas reuniones que me permitieron el traducir, completar y adaptar el proyecto a los objetivos de nuestra universidad. De la misma manera a Don Carlos Gregorio Hernández Díaz- Ambrona del cual estoy agradecido por su ayuda y permitir que esto continuase adelante. Por supuesto todo esto no hubiera sido posible sin apoyo familiar y de amistades que siempre he podido contar con ellos en todo momento. Por todo ello y por lo que supone este trabajo para mi me gustaría dedicarlo a todas estas personas, pero ante todo al profesor José María que a tantos alumnos ha conseguido hacer despertar el espíritu inquieto de ver la agricultura desde otro punto de vista más actual y optimista.

  • Comparative Transcriptome Analysis Uncovers the Regulatory Functions Of
    Bai et al. Horticulture Research (2019) 6:42 Horticulture Research https://doi.org/10.1038/s41438-019-0128-4 www.nature.com/hortres ARTICLE Open Access Comparative transcriptome analysis uncovers the regulatory functions of long noncoding RNAs in fruit development and color changes of Fragaria pentaphylla Lijun Bai1,2, Qing Chen 1,LeiyuJiang1,YuanxiuLin1,YuntianYe1,PengLiu2, Xiaorong Wang1 and Haoru Tang1 Abstract To investigate the molecular mechanism underlying fruit development and color change, comparative transcriptome analysis was employed to generate transcriptome profiles of two typical wild varieties of Fragaria pentaphylla at three fruit developmental stages (green fruit stage, turning stage, and ripe fruit stage). We identified 25,699 long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) derived from 25,107 loci in the F. pentaphylla fruit transcriptome, which showed distinct stage- and genotype-specific expression patterns. Time course analysis detected a large number of differentially expressed protein-coding genes and lncRNAs associated with fruit development and ripening in both of the F. pentaphylla varieties. The target genes downregulated in the late stages were enriched in terms of photosynthesis and cell wall organization or biogenesis, suggesting that lncRNAs may act as negative regulators to suppress photosynthesis and cell wall organization or biogenesis during fruit development and ripening of F. pentaphylla. Pairwise comparisons of two varieties at three developmental stages identified 365 differentially expressed lncRNAs in total. Functional 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; annotation of target genes suggested that lncRNAs in F. pentaphylla may play roles in fruit color formation by regulating the expression of structural genes or regulatory factors. Construction of the regulatory network further revealed that the low expression of Fra a and CHS may be the main cause of colorless fruit in F.

  • Developmental Variation in Fruit Polyphenol Content and Related Gene Expression of a Red-Fruited Versus a White-Fruited Fragaria Vesca Genotype
    horticulturae Article Developmental Variation in Fruit Polyphenol Content and Related Gene Expression of a Red-Fruited versus a White-Fruited Fragaria vesca Genotype Sutapa Roy *, Sanjay Singh and Douglas D. Archbold Department of Horticulture, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40546, USA; [email protected] (S.S.); [email protected] (D.D.A.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-859-257-3352 Received: 31 July 2018; Accepted: 25 September 2018; Published: 1 October 2018 Abstract: Two cultivars of F. vesca, red-fruited Baron Solemacher (BS) and white-fruited Pineapple Crush (PC), were studied to compare and contrast the quantitative accumulation of major polyphenols and related biosynthetic pathway gene expression patterns during fruit development and ripening. Developing PC fruit showed higher levels of hydroxycinnamic acids in green stages and a greater accumulation of ellagitannins in ripe fruit in comparison to BS. In addition to anthocyanin, red BS fruit had greater levels of flavan-3-ols when ripe than PC. Expression patterns of key structural genes and transcription factors of the phenylpropanoid/flavonoid biosynthetic pathway, an abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthetic gene, and a putative ABA receptor gene that may regulate the pathway, were also analyzed during fruit development and ripening to determine which genes exhibited differences in expression and when such differences were first evident. Expression of all pathway genes differed between the red BS and white PC at one or more times during development, most notably at ripening when phenylalanine ammonia lyase 1 (PAL1), chalcone synthase (CHS), flavanone-30-hydroxylase (F30H), dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (DFR), anthocyanidin synthase (ANS), and UDP:flavonoid-O-glucosyltransferase 1 (UFGT1) were significantly upregulated in the red BS fruit.

The simplest definition of agroforestry is that it is the integration of trees and agriculture/horticulture to create a more diverse growing system. In agroforestry the aim is to promote more use of perennial crops, notably tree and shrub crops, because they are more resilient, more sustainable and ecologically sound. Agroforestry systems can vary in complexity from the very simple, eg occasional trees planted in pastures to provide shade, emergency forage and nitrogen (via nitrogen- fixing bacteria), to the more complex systems like forest gardens, which may utilise hundreds of species to create a self-sustaining and interconnected system. The Agroforestry Research Trust The Trust is a registered charity, set up to educate and research into perennial crops and agroforestry. We have 20 acres of trial grounds in Devon including forest gardens and other systems. There are public guided tours through the growing season of our sites (see website at https://www.agroforestry.co.uk/research-site-tours/ for info and dates). We also run courses and seminars in forest gardening, growing nut crops and the forest garden greenhouse (with subtropical forest garden) in Devon. Dates and more info on website at https://www.agroforestry.co.uk/product-category/courses/. The Forest Garden Network This is an informal network of people planning or already cultivating their own forest gardens or agroforestry systems on farms, with the aim to facilitate visits to each other’s sites – one of the best ways to improve our knowledge about temperate agroforestry.

  • Agroforestry Research Trust
    Agroforestry Research Trust Fruit trees, nut trees, plants, seeds, books & sundries August 2010-July 2011 Agroforestry: what is it? The simplest definition of agroforestry is that it is the integration of trees and agriculture/horticulture to create a more diverse growing system. In agroforestry the aim is to promote more use of perennial crops, notably tree and shrub crops, for several reasons: Perennial crops are more resilient to the vagaries of the climate and more reliable in cropping than annually-cultivated crops. This may become increasingly important as climate change occurs: the latest indications are that the warming of the earth is occuring faster than anticipated and over the next 50 years, between 2° and 5 C rise in Britain looks likely. This will mean increasingly frequent droughts in summer, thus threatening many annual agricultural crops. Modern agriculture is inefficient in energy terms, whereas agroforestry relies on perennial crops which need less labour and require less energy input to maintain than annual crops. Perennial crops are much more sustainable in the long term, especially where they are planted in diverse mixtures which are planned to perform well together. Perennial crops have other important benefits, some of which are less easy to quantify. Trees and forests are essential facets of life on earth and help control and regulate wind, moisture, rainfall, temperature and so on. They are also linked with cultural and spiritual values. Agroforestry systems can vary in complexity from the very simple, eg occasional trees planted in pastures to provide shade, emergency forage and nitrogen (via nitrogen-fixing bacteria), to the more complex systems like forest gardens, which may utilise hundreds of species to create a self-sustaining and interconnected system.

    Pak. J. Bot., 46(3): 1027-1037, 2014. POLLEN FLORA OF PAKISTAN–LXXI. ROSACEAE ANJUM PERVEEN AND MUHAMMAD QAISER* Centre for Plant Conservation, University of Karachi *University of Karachi, Karachi - 75270, Pakistan Abstract Pollen morphology of 50 species representing 17 genera of the family Rosaceae i.e., Alchemilla, Argimonia, Cotoneaster, Crataegus, Duchesnea, Fragaria, Eriybotyra, Filipandula, Geum, Malus, Prunus, Potentilla, Pyrus , Rosa, Sibbaldia, Sorbaria and Sorbus has been studied from Pakistan by light and scanning electron microscope. Pollen grains are usually free, radially symmetrical, isopolar, prolate-spheroidal to subprolate or oblate-spheroidal rarely perprolate, tricolporate rarely tricolpate. Tectum mostly coarsely-finely striate, rarely striate-rugulate, scabrate or spinulose often reticulate. Rosaceae is more or less eurypalynous family. Significant variation is found in P/E ratio, shape and exine ornamentation and on the basis of these characters family has been divided into seven pollen types viz., Agrimonia eupatoria–type, Alchemilla ypsilotoma–type, Cotoneaster affinis–type, Fragaria nubicola–type, Geum roylei–type, Malus pumila–type, Potentilla pamirica–type.

  • Development and Use of Molecular Tools in Fragaria
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Wambui Njuguna for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Horticulture presented on March 1, 2010. Title: Development and Use of Molecular Tools in Fragaria Abstract approved: Nahla V. Bassil This dissertation describes the application and development of molecular tools that have great potential for use in studying variation in strawberry germplasm. The first study evaluated 91 microsatellite (simple sequence repeat, SSR) markers for transferability in 22 Fragaria species and their utility in fingerprinting octoploid strawberries. Out of the transferable markers, a reduced set of four SSRs was developed based on polymorphism, multiplexing ability, reproducibility and ease of scoring. Unique SSR fingerprints were obtained for over 175 Fragaria samples representing 22 Fragaria species used in the study. Testing of two molecular markers linked to the red stele and anthracnose resistances identified potential sources of resistance in previously untested genotypes. Further characterization of these accessions is warranted to validate resistance and usefulness in breeding. In the second study, 20 SSRs polymorphic in wild Asian diploids, F. iinumae and F. nipponica, from Hokkaido, Japan were selected for genetic analysis of 137 accessions from 22 locations. Principal coordinate analysis followed by non-parametric modal clustering grouped accessions into two groups representing the two species. Further clustering within the groups resulted in 10 groups (7-F. iinumae, 3-F. nipponica) that suggest lineages representative of the diversity in Hokkaido, Japan. The third study tested plant DNA barcodes, the nuclear ribosomal Internal Transcribed and the chloroplast PsbA-trnH spacers, for Fragaria species identification. The ‘barcoding gap’, between within species and between species variation, was absent and prevented identification of Fragaria species.

  • Växtlistan Puttmyra/Hälsingbo
    Växtlistan Puttmyra/Hälsingbo Datum: 2015-09-16 Skapad av: Philipp Weiss I detta dokument har jag gjort en sammanställning av de växter vi odlar i Puttmyra skogsträdgård och i vår hemträdgård i Hälsingbo, båda belägna utanför Stjärnsund i södra Dalarna. Båda platser ligger på gränsen mellan odlingszon IV och V enligt den svenska zonkartan, men Hälsingbo har ett utomordentligt gynnsamt mikroklimat där vi kan odla växter som annars anses vara härdiga i odlingszon III. Dokumentet är uppdelat i flera olika flikar: I fliken Vedartade listas alla vedartade växter vi odlar och några av deras egenskaper anges. Alla växter är sorterade efter deras botaniska namn och trivialnamnen ges på flera språk för att göra det lättare att hitta rätt växt på den europeiska marknaden. Härdigheten ur litteraturen anges så vitt den är känd, både enligt det amerikanska systemet (USDA) och det svenska systemet. Kolumnen "Planteringsår" ger information om hur länge växten har klarat sig på respektive växtplats. Kolumnen "proveniens" anger vart vi har fått växten ifrån och har inget med den egentliga proveniensen i botanisk mening att göra. Kolumnen "Var?" visar om växten befinner sig på friland i Puttmyra skogsträdgård, i trädgården i Hälsingbo med sitt gynnsamma mikroklimat eller i det stora växthuset i Puttmyra skogsträdgård där vi har planterat ett antal träd och buskar som inte är härdiga här på friland. Fliken Örtartade listar de flesta örter vi odlar. Här ges mindre information om varje växt än i fliken "Vedartade". Genomstrukna växtnamn anger växter som vi har prövat, men som inte har klarat sig. I kolumnen "Anmärkning" finns det i vissa fall information om varför växten har utgått.

  • Introduction to Species Strawberry Species
    1 STRAWBERRY SPECIES INTRODUCTION TO SPECIES Numerous species of strawberries are found in the temperate zones of the world. Only a few have contributed directly to the ancestry of the cultivated types, but all are an important component of our natural environment. The strawberry belongs to the family Rosaceae in the genus Fragaria. Its closest rela- tives are Duchesnea Smith and Potentilla L. Species are found at six ploidy levels in Fragaria (Table 1.1; Fig. 1.1). The most widely distributed native species, Fragaria vesca, has 14 chromosomes and is considered to be a diploid. The most commonly cultivated strawberry, Fragaria × ananassa, is an octoploid with 56 chromosomes. Interploid crosses are often quite difficult, but species with the same ploidy level can often be suc- cessfully crossed. In fact, F. × ananassa is a hybrid of two New World species, Fragaria chiloensis (L.) Duch. and Fragaria virginiana Duch. (see below). There are 13 diploid and 12 polyploid species of Fragaria now recog- nized (Table 1.1). Although a large number of the strawberry species are perfect flowered, several have separate genders. Some are dioecious and are composed of pistillate plants that produce no viable pollen and func- tion only as females, and some are staminate male plants that produce no fruit and serve only as a source of pollen (Fig. 1.2). The perfect-flowered types vary in their out-crossing rates from self-incompatible to compat- ible (Table 1.1). Isozyme inheritance data have indicated that California F. vesca is predominantly a selfing species (Arulsekar and Bringhurst, 1981), although occasional females are found in European populations (Staudt, 1989; Irkaeva et al., 1993; Irkaeva and Ankudinova, 1994).
