This study integrates high-throughput phenomics and genomics to identify marker-trait associations and candidate genes for almond morphology and quality traits.

This study identifies and characterizes the RMia gene in peach for resistance to root-knot nematodes using sequencing technologies and develops molecular markers for breeding.

The paper analyzes pedigree data of 222 almond genotypes to identify two main breeding lines derived from three cultivars, highlighting genetic diversity and inbreeding trends across global breeding programs.

The paper estimates the almond genome size and assembly, identifies transposable elements (TEs) as key drivers of divergence between almond and peach genomes, and highlights TE insertions affecting gene expression in traits like kernel taste and mesocarp formation.
