Compendium of Plant Genomes,2199-47813-319-32272-9 Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.Botanical description -- Genetic Resources -- World economic importance -- Cytoplasmic DNA in Actinidia -- Cytology, ploidy and ploidy manipulation -- Reproductive Biology -- Markers, maps, and marker-assisted selection -- The Kiwifruit Genome -- Repetitive sequences -- Gene family prediction and annotation.This book describes the basic botanical features of kiwifruit and its wild relatives, reports on the steps that led to its genome sequencing, and discusses the results obtained with the assembly and annotation. The core chapters provide essential insights into the main gene families that characterize this species as a crop, including the genes controlling sugar and starch metabolism, pigment biosynthesis and degradation, the ascorbic-acid pathway, fruit softening and postharvest metabolism, allergens, and resistance to pests and diseases. The book offers a valuable reference guide for taxonomists, geneticists and horticulturists. Further, since information gained from the genome sequence is extraordinarily useful in assessing the breeding value of individuals based on whole-genome scans, it will especially benefit plant breeders. Accordingly, chapters are included that focus on gene introgression from wild relatives and genome-based breeding.Compendium of Plant Genomes,2199-4781Plant geneticsPlant breedingAgriculturePlant Genetics and Genomicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L32020Plant Breeding/Biotechnologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24060Agriculturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006Plant genetics.Plant breeding.Agriculture.Plant Genetics and Genomics.Plant Breeding/Biotechnology.Agriculture.634.4Testolin Raffaeleedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtHuang Hong-Wenedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtFerguson Allan Rossedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910253886603321The Kiwifruit Genome2521328UNINA
