Genetic control of parthenocarpy, a desirable trait in edible fruit with hard seeds, has been extensively studied. However, the molecular mechanism of parthenocarpic fruit development in eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is still unclear. To provide insights into eggplant parthenocarpy, the transcriptomic profiles of a natural parthenocarpic (PP05) and two non-parthenocarpic (PnP05 and GnP05) egg...

Scientific relevance . Currently, in the protected ground, main areas are occupied by parthenocarpic hybrids of cucumber foreign origin. Therefore, selection domestic type is very relevant. Material and conditions The experience was laid 2018-2022 Odintsovo district Moscow region a spring film ground greenhouse "Block" on basis head institution FSBSI FSVC. Agrotechnics cultivation generally acc...

Breeding of cucumber cultivars with high parthenocarpy rate are the prerequisite that ensuring yield and quality under undesirable environment. The mixed major gene plus polygene inheritance model was used to analyze trait in six generations, including P 1 , 2 F BC  and derived from a cross between highly parthenocarpic line DDX low ZK. major-effect quantitative locus (QTL) identified by g...

Citrus reproductive biology is complex. One of its characteristic features parthenocarpy that enables seedless fruit production. and self-incompatibility knowledge only partial sometimes discrepant. Increasing such relevant for better managing cultivated varieties improving the selection parents in breeding strategies to recover as mandarins. This work develops an efficient protocol characteriz...

Podlaskie Voivodship is located in a climatic zone perceived as unfavourable for pear production. This study examines production, trade and consumption of pears in Poland and argues that Podlaskie Voivodship can exploit the existing demand for pears in the region given the physiological opportunities resulting from the phenomenon known as parthenocarpy. Parthenocarpy permits production of pears...

Fruit growth and development depend on highly coordinated hormonal activities. The phytohormone gibberellin (GA) promotes growth by inducing degradation of the growth-repressing DELLA proteins; however, the extent to which DELLA proteins contribute to GA-mediated gynoecium and fruit development remains to be clarified. Here, we provide an in-depth characterization of the role of DELLA proteins ...
