This project focuses on improving the flavor of strawberries by identifying the genetic factors that influence aroma. Using advanced genetic mapping and molecular techniques, the research aims to enhance breeding programs for strawberries, ultimately leading to cultivars with better flavor profiles.
Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) fruit flavor and aroma are among the most appreciated quality traits by consumers; as such, the improvement of strawberry flavor is receiving increasing importance in breeding programs.
However, breeding for better aroma, particularly in polyploid crops, presents many challenges and requires a previous knowledge of the genetic determinants controlling its variation.More than 300 volatile compounds have been detected in strawberry, although less than 20 contribute…
