Exploring Quantitative Trait Loci Mapping For Bud Fruitfulness And Bud Break Traits In Grapevine F2 Population, Seyma Bozkus Jan 2021

Exploring Quantitative Trait Loci Mapping For Bud Fruitfulness And Bud Break Traits In Grapevine F2 Population, Seyma Bozkus

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. subsp. vinifera) is one of the most important and valuable fruit crops around the world and grape industries in the USA have been growing increasingly regarding the demand for highly productive and quality grapes that can be grown in the cold region around the USA. The development of new cultivars with these features is performed through grape breeding with the help of quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, marker-assisted selection (MAS), and and other technologies. In this study, we evaluated grapevine bud fruitfulness by position and bud break in controlled conditions. These traits are multi-genetic and understanding …


Quantitative Trait Loci Analysis Of Low Temperature Responses In Grapevine F2 Population, Mani Awale Jan 2016

Quantitative Trait Loci Analysis Of Low Temperature Responses In Grapevine F2 Population, Mani Awale

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Freezing injury, caused by freezing temperatures in the late fall, midwinter, or early spring, can result in significant loss to grape growers. The damage may range from the partial damage of parts of the plants to the total death of the plant, and may vary between years. Freezing tolerance is a multi-genetic, complex quantitative trait that involves many related traits like dormancy induction, growth cessation, acclimation, deacclimation and bud break. Developing an understanding of the genetics behind the complex trait requires connecting the phenotype with the genotype to enable discovering the underlying genes that can contribute to quantifiable differences between …
