Peppers
Author: Vincent M. Russo
Publisher: CABI
ISBN: 1845937678
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
The group of plants called pepper is diverse, containing plants that contribute to the fresh and processed markets and are also used in pharmaceuticals and other non-food commercial products. Peppers developed in tropical regions, but are grown and used in every country where they can be grown and in countries where production is difficult. The book examines peppers from historical, genetic, physiological, production, and post-harvest standpoints following the development of the cultivated crop from the wild type. The diverse examples of pod types that have been developed and their variation in pungency are examined. Production methods, including the importance of fertilization and irrigation are discussed, as are the constraints on production, including pests, pathogens and weeds. Harvesting methods and the post-harvest challenges and opportunities, which exist at a level not found for other crops, will be explored.

The Capsicum Genome
Author: Nirala Ramchiary
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319972170
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
This book contains complete information on Capsicum genetic resources, diversity, evolution, history and advances in capsicum improvement from classical breeding to whole genome sequencing, genomics, databases and its impact on next generation pepper breeding. Capsicum is one of the most important Solanaceae crops grown worldwide as vegetables and spices. Due to its high economic value and to meet the demands of enormous population growth amid biotic and abiotic stresses, there has been an ongoing breeding program utilizing available genetic resources with desired traits to increase the sustainable productivity of this crop for several decades. However, the precision breeding of this crop for desired traits only started with the advent of molecular markers. The recent advances in high-throughput genome sequencing technologies helped in the quick decoding of transcriptome, epigenome, nuclear and organeller genomes, thereby enhancing our understanding of the structure and function of the Capsicum genome, and helping in genomics assisted breeding. These advanced technologies coupled with conventional mapping have greatly contributed towards dissection and manipulation of economically important traits more precisely and made less time consuming.

Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0443155771
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 541
Book Description
Pepper Virome: Molecular Biology, Diagnostics and Management presents detailed information about the plant viruses that infect pepper worldwide, providing crucial insights for both the scientific community and producers. Understanding the nature of the viruses, their transmission methods and possible sources of resistance in order to minimize the yield losses as well as to reduce the spread of these viruses to new locations or countries is of global importance.Pepper is an important commodity worldwide. It is cultivated for both fresh produce and for processing industry as a spice. However, various diseases affect pepper production and cause significant yield losses in pepper yield. The increasing outbreaks of virus species infecting Capsicum spp. have become a major problem for growers. A combination of factors, including expansion and intensification of pepper cultivation, availability of volunteer hosts, abundance of insect vectors and climate change have all contributed to the issue. Pepper Virome provides in-depth information on both the viruses infecting peppers, and eco-friendly management measures to decrease the rate of spread of viruses. Addressing the need for increased international collaboration and exchange of pepper germplasm, these insights will also facilitate the selection and breeding for improved Capsicum spp. adapted to local conditions and uses. Focuses on symptomatology, transmission, and epidemiology of pepper viruses Reveals the impact on host, yield, and virus-vector interactions Evaluates management strategies against viruses and how they have evolved

Breeding for Phytophthora Capsici Resistance in Pepper (Capsicum Annuum)
Author: William Zebulun Rehrig
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781321363784
Category :
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
A major problem for the pepper (Capsicum annuum) industry is the root and crown rot disease caused by Phytophthora capsici (Pc), to which all commercial varieties suffer yield losses despite good management practices and available landraces with high levels of resistance. Introgression of genetic resistance from pepper landraces to cultivated varieties would benefit the growers and environment through reduced pesticide applications and increased crop value. Genetic linkage maps and a physical genomic map were employed to identify resistance loci and candidate genes conferring resistance. Pepper recombinant inbred lines (RILs) have been systematically screened for Pc resistance against a set of isolates collected from Mexico, New Mexico, New Jersey, California, Michigan and Tennessee. Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) associated with effective resistance across isolates have been identified and validated with SNP markers across additional segregating populations. RNA-Seq data were also compared in resistant and susceptible bulks to evaluate differential expression leading to resistance. By leveraging transcriptomic and genomic information, we describe several candidate genes responsible for the major QTL on chromosome P5 for resistance to Pc. SNP markers for the resistant allele were validated to facilitate gene pyramiding schemes for recurrent selection in pepper.

Current Technologies in Plant Molecular Breeding
Author: Hee-Jong Koh
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9401799962
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
Recent progress in biotechnology and genomics has expanded the plant breeders’ horizon providing a molecular platform on the traditional plant breeding, which is now known as ‘plant molecular breeding’. Although diverse technologies for molecular breeding have been developed and applied individually for plant genetic improvement, common use in routine breeding programs seems to be limited probably due to the complexity and incomplete understanding of the technologies. This book is intended to provide a guide for researchers or graduate students involved in plant molecular breeding by describing principles and application of recently developed technologies with actual case studies for practical use. The nine topics covered in this book include the basics on genetic analysis of agronomic traits, methods of detecting QTLs, the application of molecular markers, genomics-assisted breeding including epigenomic issues, and genome-wide association studies. Identification methods of mutagenized plants, actual case studies for the isolation and functional studies of genes, the basics of gene transfer in major crops and the procedures for commercialization of GM crops are also described. This book would be a valuable reference for plant molecular breeders and a cornerstone for the development of new technologies in plant molecular breeding for the future.
