Haplotype-based validation of genomic regions for breeding of new Nordic apples.

Abstract excerpt

When breeding apple cultivars for northern latitudes, early harvest and late flowering are desirable to manage the short growing season and ongoing climatic changes. Depending on the intended use, increased content of polyphenolic compound might be considered desirable (juice and cider) or undesirable (dessert). Thus, we phenotyped a total of 111, 189, and 88 apple genotypes for harvest date, flowering date, and...
