“…As a result, the variables SH_I_L (representing PC-1), BE_E (PC-2), Be_Wi (PC-3), BE_100SW (PC-4) and JU_TA (PC-5) were finally selected. These variables not only represent different and independent variance segments, but also highly appreciated traits for table grape consumers and growers, including berry size, shape and seediness (BE_100SW, BE_E and Be_Wi), grape composition (JU_TA) and plant vigor (SH_I_L) (Dragincic et al 2015;Wang et al 2017;Zhou et al 2015). In fact, these are key parameters usually considered in table grape breeding programs for the development of new premium varieties (Wei et al 2002).…”

Due to its unique historical and geographical emplacement, grapes have been cultivated in the Syrian Arab Republic for more than 5000 years, so the characterization of its local genetic resources is paramount for understanding grapevine natural diversity. In this work, different local Syrian table grape cultivars were characterized for 42 traits related to plant phenology, shoot, leaf, cluster, berry and juice composition. A series of multivariate analyses were sequentially performed, and five highly-discriminant traits were identified as the most discriminant ones (shoot internode length, berry weight, berry elongation, 100-seed weight and juice titratable acidity). The clustering of the cultivars according to these five traits revealed that some local Syrian cultivars share similitude with some worldwide grown cultivars, suggesting their potential as new genetic resources for the development of new high-quality table grape varieties, and indicating the needing of specific preservation programs aimed to avoid the loss of endangered genetic local resources. Besides, the statistical multivariate pipeline followed in this work is proposed as an efficient one for the selection of ampelographic traits for the discrimination of grapevine cultivars.

“…Fruit texture and fruit skin strength are important attributes in fruit production and transport, as they largely determine the methods used for fruit harvest, postharvest sorting, packaging, and transportation. Fruit texture and skin strength are also important in consumers’ assessment of fruit quality and preferences [4, 42]. Fig texture and skin strength are remarkably more resistant in CR vs. TR fruit to harvesting, transport and shelf handling.…”

Background Fig fruit are highly perishable at the tree-ripe (TR) stage. Commercial-ripe (CR) fruit, which are harvested before the TR stage for their postharvest transportability and shelf-life advantage, are inferior to TR fruit in size, color and sugar content. The succulent urn-shaped receptacle, serving as the protective structure and edible part of the fruit, determines fruit quality. Quantitative iTRAQ and RNA-Seq were performed to reveal the differential proteomic and transcriptomic traits of the receptacle at the two harvest stages. Results We identified 1226 proteins, of which 84 differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) were recruited by criteria of abundance fold-change (FC) ≥1.3 and p < 0.05 in the TR/CR receptacle proteomic analysis. In addition, 2087 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened by ≥2-fold expression change: 1274 were upregulated and 813 were downregulated in the TR vs. CR transcriptomic analysis. Ficin was the most abundant soluble protein in the fig receptacle. Sucrose synthase, sucrose-phosphate synthase and hexokinase were all actively upregulated at both the protein and transcriptional levels. Endoglucanase, expansin, beta-galactosidase, pectin esterase and aquaporins were upregulated from the CR to TR stage at the protein level. In hormonal synthesis and signaling pathways, high protein and transcriptional levels of aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate oxidase were identified, together with a few diversely expressed ethylene-response factors, indicating the potential leading role of ethylene in the ripening process of fig receptacle, which has been recently reported as a non-climacteric tissue. Conclusions We present the first delineation of intra- and inter-omic changes in the expression of specific proteins and genes of TR vs. CR fig receptacle, providing valuable candidates for further study of fruit-quality formation control and fig cultivar innovation to accommodate market demand.

Vitis vinifera L.) cv. 'Summer Black' vines on different resistant rootstocks including '101-14M', '110R', '188-08', '5BB', '5C', 'Beta' and 'SO4' (with non-grafted vines as control) were evaluated to make dependable selections and berry quality related traits of eight combinations were assessed over three consecutive years. Scion vigor was improved by 'Beta' which greatly increased mature shoot length (MSL), and by 'SO4' which distinctly enlarged scion trunk cross sectional diameter while yield was restrained on '101-14M'. Cluster mass (CM) was maximal on '188-08', minimal on '5C', and berry mass (BM) was maintained by '188-08', '5BB' and 'SO4'. Grape berries on '101-04M' obtained total vines. Overall, trees on '5BB' and '5C' acquired similar berry qualities (size, chemical traits and texture), yields and growth vigor to the control vines, and they were preferentially recommended for grafting cultivation of 'Summer Black' grapevines. Keywords berry quality, table grape, triploid, vigor, Vitis vinifera, yield components What is already known on this subject? • 'Summer Black' is a very popular seedless grape cultivar in China for its good taste. Selection of suitable performances of cultivation. • 'Summer Black' vines grafted on '5BB' and '5C' kept proper balance in vine vigor, berry quality and fruit yield, and those on 'SO4' were markedly productive. What is the expected impact on horticulture? • This study will provide credible preferences for choosing suitable rootstocks of 'Summer Black', and is which might be destructive. German Society for Horticultural Science stresses, rootstocks modify the scion performance, i.e., yield, berry quality and vine vigor (Wang et al., 2019). However, improved the vigor of 'Monastrell' (Romero et al., 2018), but reduced the size of 'Chardonnay' vines (Ferroni and Scalabrelli, 1995). Even the same scion/rootstock combination may present various performances (Sommer et al., 2001; viticulture practices on grapes. In recent years, the utilization of resistant rootstocks is paid rising concerns by researchers in China (Gao et al., 2015; Zhang et al., 2012), and grafting a few wine grape varieties onto rootstocks were studied (Li et al., 2019a; Wang et al., 2019). Despite that rootstocks were realized with great potential in resisting stresses, most table grapes are still cultivated by cuttings due to the fortune of not having any phylloxera pest problems in the early years (http://www. fao.org/3/x6897e/x6897e05.htm). However, phylloxera has occurred in some provinces of China since 2005 (Zhang et al., 2010). To cope with the potential stresses, it appears indispensable to make reliable evaluations of rootstocks on agvarieties. 'Summer Black' ('Kyoto' × 'Thompson Seedless'), a classical seedless table grape cultivar released in 2000, is popular in both consumers and growers in China (Wang et al., 2017), and its planting area ran into nearly 20 thousand hectares in 2014 (Cheng et al., 2016). According to an internal communication by scientists from China Agriculture Research System, ...
