“…This could be explained by the co-localization of a major QTL for SSC with the morphological marker for peach/nectarine on linkage group 5 (Quilot et al 2004b). At the same time, flat fruits showed higher SSC than round fruits, which is in agreement with reports where most flat fruit varieties have shown sweeter taste and higher sugar content (Ma et al 2003). The interest in flat fruit peach cultivars is increasing to a large extent due to their excellent organoleptic characteristics (Nicotra et al 2002).…”

“…At the same time, flat fruit showed higher TA than round fruit. However, most flat peach varieties have been reported to have low titratable acidity (Ma et al 2003). In our work, the higher acidity showed by flat fruit genotypes could be explained by the influence of non-flat progenitors, since this is a continuous trait of quantitative inheritance (Dirlewanger et al 2006).…”

Agronomic and fruit quality traits were evaluated and compared for three consecutive years on 1,111 seedlings coming from 15 peach and nectarine breeding crosses, grown under a Mediterranean climate. Significant differences among and within the different progenies were found for most of the traits analyzed. The breeding population segregated for several Mendelian characters such as peach or nectarine fruit, round or flat fruit, yellow or white flesh and freestone or clingstone. In addition, aborting fruit and flat fruit trees were found in our progeny, and our data seem to support multi-allelic control of both flat shape and aborting fruit. The variation within the progenies of some traits such as blooming and harvesting date, yield, fruit weight and SSC was continuous, suggesting a polygenic inheritance. Relationships between qualitative pomological traits and these agronomic and fruit quality parameters were also found. Valuable correlations among agronomic and fruit quality parameters were found, although coefficients of variation depending on the progeny should be considered. In addition, principal component analysis (PCA) revealed several relationships among quality traits in the evaluated progenies. Based on this evaluation, 26 outstanding genotypes were pre-selected from the initial breeding population for further studies.

“…The flat fruit character originating from China was reported to be controlled by a dominant gene, which was named S for "saucer-shaped" (Lesley 1940). Most flat peach varieties had excellent flavor with a sweet taste, low titratable acidity (TA), and high sugar content (Ma et al 2003). They were also reported to have flowers with pistil lower than stamen and to have, for most of them, fertile pollen (Ma et al 2003).…”

An improved genetic linkage map was constructed from a peach Ferjalou Jalousia ® × Fantasia (J×F) F 2 population. Ferjalou Jalousia ® is a flat low-acidity clingstone peach, and Fantasia is a round, normally acidic freestone peach. This population is segregated for six Mendelian characters: pollen sterility, peach or nectarine fruit, flat or round fruit, clingstone, or freestone fruit. It also segregates for the D major gene controlling the fruit's low acidity. A new character is reported here for the first time that segregates as a Mendelian character: trees bearing aborting fruits. These trees have flowers, but fruits start to fall 2 months after blooming. This recessive character has been named Af. We demonstrate that it is linked to the flat shape of the fruit. The previous map obtained from this cross was constructed using 63 individuals, whereas the present map was constructed using 207 individuals. Moreover, 82 simple-sequence repeat (SSR) markers, including 10 expressed sequence tag-SSRs, and 43 amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers were added. Molecular markers linked to the six Mendelian characters were identified, and one of them has already been used for marker-assisted selection. This map will be used for detection of quantitative trait loci controlling organoleptic and nutritional fruit quality in peach.
