Breeding and genetics of lilacs and hardy hibiscus

Creator:: Lattier, Jason D.
Abstract:: Lilacs are a group of ornamental trees and shrubs in the Oleaceae family consisting of 22 to 30 species. There are six series within genus Syringa: Pubescentes, Villosae, Ligustrae, Ligustrina, Pinnatifoliae, and Syringa. Fertility and cross-compatibility among cultivars, species, and series have yet to be formally investigated. Over three years,...

Factors influencing storage quality of hazelnut varieties

Creator:: Ebrahem, Kais Shaheb
Abstract:: This thesis research is a series of five studies dealing with various aspects of hazelnut quality: 1. Identification of kernel mold and its incidence among hazelnut varieties. 2. Seasonal development and composition of kernels. 3. Hazelnut oil composition (fatty acids and tocopherols) of seventeen varieties. 4. Hazelnut oil composition compared...

Developing Tools for Hardy Hibiscus and Lilac Breeding: Quantile Regression, Cytogenetics, Interspecific Hybridization, Somatic Hybridization, and Marker-Trait Association

Creator:: Chen, Hsuan
Abstract:: Hibiscus and lilacs (Syringa spp.) are economically important nursery crops in the US that accounted for 4.5 million units ($30 million) and 2 million units ($20 million), respectively (USDA, 2016). To maintain and expand the market share of ornamental plants such as lilacs and Hibiscus, novel performance, floral ornamental value,...

Evaluation of genetic diversity in wild populations of black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.)

Creator:: Dossett, Michael
Abstract:: In recent years, there has been renewed interest in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.) breeding. This has been spurred, in part, by an increase in black raspberry consumption due to studies that have shown them to be particularly high in anthocyanin content indicating high levels of antioxidants. Present cultivars are...

Determining ploidy level and nuclear DNA content in Rubus by flow cytometry

Creator:: Meng, Rengong
Abstract:: Nuclear DNA flow cytometry was used to differentiate ploidy level and determine nuclear DNA content in Rubus. Nuclei suspensions were prepared from leaf discs of young leaves following published protocols with modifications that included: increasing the stain concentration, adding the stain after the RN ase treatment instead of adding it...

Ectopic overexpression of Arabidopsis CBF genes enhances freezing tolerance of two potato species

Creator:: Pino, María-Teresa
Abstract:: Solanum species differ in their degree of frost tolerance and cold acclimation capacity. Cultivated potato species of Solanum tuberosum L. are frost-sensitive, incapable of cold acclimation, and have a maximum freezing tolerance of –3°C. Solanum commersonii Dun is frost-tolerant and can survive to –5ºC pre-acclimation and –10ºC post-acclimation. Breeding attempts...

Development and use of molecular tools in Fragaria

Creator:: Njuguna, Wambui
Abstract:: This dissertation describes the application and development of molecular tools that have great potential for use in studying variation in strawberry germplasm. The first study evaluated 91 microsatellite (simple sequence repeat, SSR) markers for transferability in 22 Fragaria species and their utility in fingerprinting octoploid strawberries. Out of the transferable...

Phylogenetic Estimation and Ancestral State Reconstruction of Rubus (Rosaceae) using Target Capture Sequencing

Creator:: Carter, Katherine A.
Abstract:: Hybridization, polyploidy, and apomixis have made phylogenetic estimation in Rubus challenging. I used target capture to sequence approximately 1000 low copy nuclear loci and the chloroplast genome for 94 accessions representing the genus Rubus and distributed worldwide. Species phylogenies were estimated using two coalescent based methods, ASTRAL-II and SVDQuartets, and...
