“…For`Royal Glory', its pedigree data allows one to conclude that it does not come from sel®ng because it is a peach and`May Grand' a nectarine. Given that the peach phenotype is dominant over the nectarine (Monet et al 1996), the conclusion is that`Royal Glory' comes from the cross of`May Grand' with an unknown peach individual, an observation consistent also with its high level of SSR heterozygosity (62%).…”

A genomic DNA library enriched with AG/CT repeats has been developed from the peach cultivar ‘Merrill O'Henry’. The enrichment method was efficient, with 61% of the clones obtained carrying a microsatellite sequence and a yield of one polymorphic microsatellite every 2.17 sequenced clones. From 35 microsatellites detected, 24 were polymorphic in a set of 25 cultivars including 14 peaches and 11 nectarines. A total of 82 alleles were found with the polymorphic microsatellites, with an average of a 37% of observed heterozygosity. Microsatellites with a high number of repeats were generally those having the largest number of alleles. All cultivars except two (‘Spring Lady’ and ‘Queencrest’) could be individually distinguished with the markers used. Just three selected microsatellites were enough for the discrimination of 24 out of the 25 possible genotypes. Cluster analysis grouped all nectarines in a single cluster. Peaches, with 75 of the 82 alleles found, were more variable than nectarines, with only 64. Microsatellites appear to be powerful and suitable markers for application in peach genetics and breeding.

“…Peach has a short juvenile phase (2 to 3 years) compared to most other fruit tree species, and a small haploid genome of approximately 290 Mbp (Baird et al 1994), only about twice the size of the Arabidopsis thaliana genome (Arumuganathan and Earle 1991). Moreover, peach is genetically the best characterized Prunus species, with many Mendelian genes controlling morphological traits (Hesse 1975;Scorza and Sherman 1996;Monet et al 1996), and well developed genomic tools that will be detailed in this review. These attributes make peach a good model species for the Rosaceae .…”

The goal of the present study was to identify candidate genes (CGs) involved in fruit quality in peach that can be transferred to other Rosaceae species. Two cDNA libraries from fruit of the "Fantasia" peach cultivar, constructed at two stages of development, were used to generate a set of expressed sequence tag sequences. A total of 1,730 peach unigenes were obtained after clustering. Sequences and corresponding annotations were stored in a relational database and are available through a web interface. Fifty-nine CGs involved in fruit growth and development or fruit quality at maturity, focusing on sweetness, acidity, and phenolic compound content, were selected according to their annotation. Fifty-five primer pairs, designed from peach CG sequences and giving PCR products in peach, were tested in strawberry and 36 gave amplified products. Eight CGs were mapped in peach, 14 in strawberry, four in both species and confirmed the pattern of synteny already proposed using comparative mapping. In peach, the CGs are located in three linkage groups (3, 5, 7), and in strawberry they are distributed in all seven Fragaria linkage groups. Colocalization between some of these CGs and quantitative trait loci for fruit quality traits were identified and are awaiting confirmation in further analyses.
