In this project we plan to establish a complete collection of NILs (in
homozygosis and in heterozygosis) developed from the cross between
Texas (almond) and Earlygold (peach) cultivars, and to evaluate it for
some fruit quality and metabolic traits, to demonstrate its utility in the
dissection of quantitative variation. Finally we propose to extend this
strategy to other Prunus species, including wild peaches.
