Uma visão em comunicação e leitura Ciência de Dados. Na perspectiva de Laboratório - Aprendizagem e conhecimento. A conexão de laços e alinhamento ao experimento de pesquisa. Ameixa Prunus Japonesa. Em suas bases - Lucia Myrtea - Victória Myrtea - Red Beau - Santa Rosa.. As tecnologias de Refriamentos e dormências e suas perspecctivas de clima e es...
As a result of the Japanese japanese plum breeding program developed by CEBAS-CSIC and IMIDA (Murcia, Spain), two new cultivars, ‘Lucia Myrtea’ and ‘Victoria Myrtea’, have been recently released and registered for commercialization. These new Japanese plum cultivars combine the main desired characteristics that are the aim of our breeding program....
The introduction of the flat peach nectarine typology in the markets is very recent, and has been determined by the continuous discard of the existing cultivars due to the different physiological and adaptation problems that deteriorated the productivity and fruit quality, making its commercialization non-viable. ‘Mistral 30®’ is a platerine or fla...
The effects of carbon source and concentration and of seedcoat were tested on
the in vitro germination of peach seeds derived from crosses performed in the field. Seeds were extracted from the fruit and cultured in WPM supplemented with sucrose, glucose,
or sorbitol at concentrations of 15, 30, and 45 g·L-1
. The percentage of germination as
well a...
The Murcia changes in sweet cherry in recent decades, with especial importance to production areas, are exposed, describing the situation and trends concerning cultivars, rootstocks, training systems and cost of production. The advances made in sweet cherry improvement in recent years are also described, with special reference to the need to evalua...
Spain is one of the main plum producing countries in the world. Particularly noteworthy is the good adaptation of the Japanese plum (Prunus salicina Lindl.) cultivars to Spanish climatic conditions and thus the possibility to grow early ripening cultivars that can be harvested in May and June. However, the Japanese plum crop in Spain has a number o...
The non-melting yellow peach or “pavia” has decreased its production in recent years, but
at the national level it still has an internal market gap for fresh consumption. The breeding
program IMIDA-NOVAMED has developed three varieties of this typology: Levante 20®,
Levante 40® y Levante 45® with very similar characteristics and good organoleptic
q...
El sistema de autoincompatibilidad presente en cerezo (Prunus avium L.) es de tipo gametofítico monofactorial con múltiples alelos. Este sistema está controlado genéticamente por un locus llamado S, que presenta dos genes que determinan el fenotipo del polen (SFB) y del pistilo (S-RNasa). Estos dos factores interaccionan de manera alelo-específica...
El uso de marcadores moleculares como herramienta de apoyo en los programas de mejora genética de plantas no deja de ofrecer nuevos avances durante los últimos años. En este trabajo se presentan varias selecciones del programa de mejora genética de melocotonero del IMIDA, con su caracterización fenotípica y una identificación molecular de estas sel...
Spain is one of the main plum producing countries worldwide. Particularly noteworthy is the good adaptation of the Japanese plum (Prunus salicina Lindl.)
cultivars to our climatic conditions and thus the possibility to grow early ripening

Nowadays, Spain is the second peach producing country and the first exporting country in the world. The flat peach occupies 25% of the total peach area cultivated in Spain. The IMIDA-NOVAMED breeding program has developed three new selections of flat peach, Siroco 30®, Siroco 40® and Siroco 43® that differ in harvest date and they show a very simil...
Gracias a los proyectos llevados a cabo por el IMIDA la Región de Murcia se ha convertido en un gran referente en la mejora genética del género Prunus En el Instituto Murciano de Investigación y Desarrollo Agrario y Alimentario (IMIDA) se están desarrollando en la actualidad programas de mejora genética de melocotonero, ciruelo y cerezo, para inten...
Las exportaciones españolas de melocotones y nectarinas han crecido de forma muy importante durante la última década, desplazando a Italia de su histórica posición dominante. Esta circunstancia ha ido acompañada de un crecimiento importante en la producción española originado por la mejora de las técnicas de producción y basado en una amplia renova...
‘Alisio 15®’, a new peach [Prunus persica (L.) Bastch] for the fresh market, resulted from a cross made in Murcia (Spain) as part of the IMIDA-NOVAMED breeding program with the aim of breeding new early-ripening cultivars with dark red skin, good size, and high sugar content as an improvement over other early cultivars currently available. This cul...
An increasing interest for sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) occurs at present in Region of Murcia, Spain. In the area of Cieza, Murcia, it has been recorded since four years ago the flowering period in a sweet cherry ex situ collection holding 35 cultivars fertigared by drip irrigation. Flowering period of 2008 and 2009 have been compared and connect...
Sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) is considered as an alternative crop for Mediterranean environments with mild winters, as occur in some areas of the Murcia Region, Spain. There are also some cooler areas where sweet cherry performs well, such as Jumilla. To introduce this crop in diverse environments, an I+D project has been developed. It involves r...
An efficient protocol for seed germination is needed when developing a peach breeding programme in order to ensure the development of new hybrids. The stage of stratification is crucial as seeds have to be kept in low temperature for a long period of time, sometimes leading to the loss of their viability. The cultivars used in the study were 'Andro...
Region of Murcia is one of the major peach-producing areas in Spain and it is also one of the oldest within the European Union. Payments over property rights of new peach cultivars have proved to be very controversial. When a producer designs a new plant, he or she must pay royalties for the new cultivars to the market, use free cultivars or develo...
Somatic peach plants were regenerated from callus derived from the base of stem explants of the scion cultivars ‘UFO-3’, ‘Maruja’,
‘Flariba’ and ‘Alice Bigi’, and the peach × almond rootstocks ‘Garnem’ and ‘GF677’. A protocol for organogenic plant regeneration
was developed using three culture media containing different concentrations of 6-benzyla...
Sweet cherry cultivars have different chilling and heat requirements for breaking rest and flowering. The knowledge of these requirements may be valuable in the selection of the appropriate cultivars for producers and to avoid losses caused by an inadequate cultivar selection in a particular area. Determination of chilling and heat requirements is...
The use of rooted walnut (Juglans regia L.) cultivars in orchards can result in an important lack of soil adaptation. Finding a genotype good enough to serve as both a cultivar and a rootstock seems quite improbable. Breeding programmes for cultivars result in the accumulation of genes for production and for leaf and/or stem diseases, resistance or...
This work studies the in vitro proliferation stage of the peach-almond hybrid 'Mayor'®, by comparing the proliferation rates, height and number of leaves of the explants, together with the number of explants exhibiting hyperhydricity symptoms, and the qualitative states (0-4), in four culture media: Murasighe and Skoog, MS (1976); Lloyd and McCown,...
The optimal in vitro conditions to induce explant rooting of the 'Mayor'® peach-almond hybrid were determined by comparing the different auxinic concentrations, methods of treatment and culture media. In the first experiment three IBA concentrations were studied: 1, 1.5 and 2 mg/l using the in vitro culture medium created specifically for this hybr...
