Molecular Mapping and Identification of QTLs and Genes for Economically Important Traits in the Capsicum Genome

The state-of-the-art in the genetics of resistance to the colletotrichum species complex in Capsicum

“…Genomics has revolutionized many things, from the taxonomy of pathogens to the more accurate identification of the number of resistance genes/QTLs and gene position, among other things. It is extremely important for the understanding of evolutionary processes, the more efficient and adequate management of genetic resources and the ac- (NAEGELE et al 2014;REHRIG et al 2014;XU et al 2016;MOHAN & PARAN 2019).…”

Characterization and Enhancement of Genetic Resources for the Improvement of Nutritional and Organoleptic Quality in Solanaceae Vegetable Crops

“…Nevertheless, the availability of a high-quality reference genome for C. annuum (Acquadro et al, 2020;Hulse-Kemp et al, 2018;Kim et al, 2017Kim et al, , 2014 and two other cultivated species of pepper (Qin et al, 2014), genetic maps Tanksley et al, 1988), gene expression analyses (B. Wahyuni et al, 2014), and highly informative genome-wide molecular markers Mohan and Paran, 2019;Park et al, 2020;Wahyuni et al, 2014), together with metabolomic analyses and an extensive understanding of the biosynthetic pathways and key enzymes associated to nutritional and bioactive compounds, will boost pepper breeding towards the improvement of fruit quality parameters.…”

“…Since then, several other intra and interspecific maps, using different species and segregating populations, have been constructed to dissect different traits of interest . Thus, these first maps were of paramount importance to shed light into the synteny between the pepper and tomato genomes and enable markerassisted selection and QTL dissection (Jaiswal et al, 2019;Mohan and Paran, 2019;Wahyuni et al, 2014) (Kim et al, 2014;Qin et al, 2014). Since then, new genomes and improved versions of the CM334 accession have been released (Acquadro et al, 2020;Hulse-Kemp et al, 2018;Kim et al, 2017), including the first pepper pangenome (Ou et al, 2018).…”
