“…Considering that wild mei accessions from Tibet 20 and P. mume var. tortuosa bear single and double-flowers, respectively, genomic sequences from the two reference assemblies were aligned and compared with those of peach and apricot (Supplementary File 1 A), allowing to identify a major variant between the wild P. mume and P. mume var.…”

“…To confirm the presence of the pmTOE DEL variant in the mei germplasm a Blast-based search was performed using whole-genome data from SRA 6 along with available flower phenotype 3 , 20 . After discarding low-coverage libraries, a total of 209 mei re-sequenced accessions samples were retrieved: 53 out of 56 accessions belonging to the ‘Single Flowered’ group resulted homozygous for the pmTOE allele (Supplementary Table 1 ) while the pmTOE DEL allele, either homozygous or heterozygous (Fig.…”

Mutations affecting flower shape in many plants have been favored by human selection, and various fruit trees are also grown for ornamental purposes. Mei (Prunus mume) is a dual purpose tree originated in China well known in the Western world for its generous early blooms, often bearing double flowers. Building on the knowledge of its genomic location, a candidate gene approach was used to identify a 49 bp deletion encompassing the miR172 target site of the euAP2 gene pmTOE (PmuVar_Ch1_3490) as a prime variant linked to flower doubleness. Searching within a large dataset of genome sequencing data from Eastern germplasm collections demonstrated a tight variant-trait association, further confirmed in a panel of commercial and non-commercial varieties available in Italy. Moreover, two SNP mutations in the miR172 target site of pmPET (PmuVar_Ch1_1333) were identified in some double flower accessions. The mei orthologue of PETALOSA genes already found responsible for the phenotype in other plants suggests that independent variants may have been selected throughout mei domestication history.

“…De fato, o nome binominal da méi é Prunus mume, sendo igual ao damasqueiro, vista como uma espécie biológica individual da seção Prunus armeniaca (tabela 1). Méi teve a sua origem na China e desempenha um papel bastante relevante na cultura chinesa, cujo impacto chegou a influenciar os países vizinhos ao longo da história, tais como, Japão e Coreia (Li & Liu, 2011). A partir disso, deu origem à palavra originária de Japonês "umê" em Português do Brasil, devido à influência migratória japonesa.…”

Apesar de pertencerem a duas famílias linguísticas totalmente distintas, encontra-se sempre uma traduzibilidade entre a língua chinesa e portuguesa. O primeiro dicionário Português-Chinês de Matteo Ricci e Michele Ruggieri do século XVII é a evidência mais persuasiva desse fato. Por um lado, não há carência de obras-primas de tradução nos dias de hoje e, por outro lado, o intercâmbio cultural intensifica-se a ritmo acelerado à medida que o processo de globalização se aprofunda. Torna-se premente prestar atenção à existência de diferenças existentes nas duas culturas diferentes e às não correspondências na sua tradução. O conhecimento parcial em relação a outra cultura pode originar uma tradução imprecisa e resultar em equívoco a respeito de outros conceitos associados em sequência. É indubitável que as diferenças de espécies biológicas e culturais são as que mais causam o fenômeno da não correspondência. Todavia, a procura de conceitos similares na cultura da língua de chegada é igualmente uma estratégia frequentemente utilizada, facilitando tanto o trabalho de tradutor, quanto a compreensão do público-alvo. Porém, a facilitação da tradução pode trazer mal-entendidos. No entanto, a não correspondência relativamente a hiperónimos e hipónimos entre as duas culturas dificulta, de certo modo, a tradução de alguns conceitos. O presente trabalho pretende exemplificar algumas das questões de não correspondências entre as duas línguas, com o objetivo de contribuir para a melhor compreensão entre a língua chinesa e portuguesa.

With a basis in human appreciation of beauty and aesthetic values, the new era of ornamental crops is based on implementing innovative technologies and transforming symbols into tangible assets. Recent advances in plant biotechnology have attracted considerable scientific and industrial interest, particularly in terms of modifying desired plant traits and developing future ornamental crops. By utilizing omics approaches, genomic data, genetic engineering, and gene editing tools, scientists have successively explored the underlying molecular mechanism and potential gene(s) behind trait regulation such as floral induction, plant architecture, stress resistance, plasticity, adaptation, and phytoremediation in ornamental crop species. These signs of progress lay a theoretical and practical foundation for designing and enhancing the efficiency of ornamental plants for a wide range of applications. In this review, we briefly summarized the existing literature and advances in biotechnological approaches for the improvement of vital traits in ornamental plants. The designing of future ornamentals such as light-emitting plants, biotic/abiotic stress detectors, pollution abatement, and the introduction of new ornamental varieties via domestication of wild species is also discussed.
