fragaria vesca/atrophy

Degenerate oligonucleotide primers, designed based on conserved regions of Nucleotide Binding Site (NBS) domains from previously cloned plant resistance genes, were used to isolate Resistance Gene Analogues (RGAs) from wild and cultivated strawberries. Seven distinct families of RGAs of the NBS-LRR

Degenerate oligonucleotide primers, designed based on conserved regions of several serine-threonine kinases (STK) previously cloned in tomato and Arabidopsis, were used to isolate STK candidates in wild and cultivated strawberries. Seven distinct classes of STKs were identified from three related

Apple mosaic virus (ApMV) has been reported to naturally infect a number of hosts in the Rosaceae family including Rosa spp., Malus spp., and Rubus spp. etc., as well as several hosts such as Humulus spp. and Betula spp. in other plant families (2), but has not been reported to naturally infect

A cDNA (Cel1) encoding an endo-1,4-beta-glucanase (EGase) was isolated from ripe fruit of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa). The deduced protein of 496 amino acids contains a presumptive signal sequence, a common feature of cell wall-localized EGases, and one potential N-glycosylation site. Southern-
