Phenological variation associates with the stability of fruit quality traits in cultivated tetraploid blueberry.

Abstract excerpt

Fruit quality represents the major constraints to consumer acceptance of new blueberry cultivars. However, breeding for fruit quality is challenging due to its complex inheritance and genotype × environment interaction. Despite previous efforts to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with fruit quality traits, most of the identified QTL explain only a fraction of the total variability or lack stability...
