Morphological and Chemical Variation of Wild Sweet Chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) Populations

Igor Poljak et al.

Summary: In this study, morphometric methods and chemical analyses were used to investigate the differences in phenotypic and nutritional traits of sweet chestnut in different environmental conditions. The results showed that the variability in morphological and chemical traits was not associated with geographic or environmental variables. Significant correlations were found between morphometric and chemical data. The study revealed high phenotypic variability among and within populations, suggesting the importance of managing and conserving the genetic resources of sweet chestnut.

Genetic characterization of Italian and Spanish wild and domesticated chestnut trees

Sara Alessandri et al.

Summary: This study explored the genetic variability and origin of chestnuts in Europe. It revealed the presence of two genetically distinct groups of chestnuts in Spain and Italy, with a common genetic structure between southern Spain and southern Italy. The results also showed no genetic differentiation between cultivated and wild chestnuts, indicating gene flow between them.

Sweet Chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) Nutritional and Phenolic Composition Interactions with Chestnut Flavor Physiology

Maria Joao Santos et al.

Summary: The European chestnut is an environmentally and economically important species in Europe, mainly for fruit production. It is known for its high concentration of carbohydrates and low-fat content, as well as being gluten-free. Understanding the interactions between our sensory organs and food helps us comprehend flavor and the sensory evaluation of chestnuts. Chestnuts have unique sensory characteristics and can be used in various gastronomic dishes.

Assessing the Genetic Identity of Tuscan Sweet Chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.)

Marta Cavallini et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the genetic diversity of the sweet chestnut and found high levels of genetic diversity within varieties of the same area. Significant genetic differentiation was also observed between cultivation areas, and the existence of ancestral gene pools was confirmed through population structure inference. These findings have important implications for the conservation of this species and future breeding programs.

Gene flow between wild trees and cultivated varieties shapes the genetic structure of sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) populations

Katarina Tumpa et al.

Summary: Gene flow between cultivated and wild gene pools is common in the sweet chestnut orchards in the northern Adriatic region. The genetic structure of these orchards, including different clones and hybrids between cultivated and wild chestnuts, represents a diverse population that could be further selected for locally adapted, high-yielding varieties.

Genetic Purity of Cacao Criollo from Honduras Is Revealed by SSR Molecular Markers

Marlon Lopez et al.

Summary: Cacao cultivation serves as a crucial income option and employment source for thousands of small producers in Central America, particularly in Honduras where the demand for high-quality cacao is increasing. The Criollo cacao, known for its white beans without bitterness and excellent aroma, faces challenges in pest resistance and productivity, leading to the adoption of new cultivars for better yield. The study on genetic purity of Criollo cacao in Honduras revealed a mix of pure Criollo and genetic traits from other cacao types, highlighting the importance of preserving genetic diversity for sustainable cacao cultivation.

Genetic Characterisation of Chestnut Cultivars in Crete

Mohamad Ali El Chami et al.

Summary: This study assessed the genetic variability of Cretan sweet chestnut using SSR markers and revealed notable genetic diversity among the four cultivars, each of which was found to be multiclonal. Genetic differentiation among cultivars was relatively low but significant, and several synonymy groups were identified. Clustering analysis showed two main clusters corresponding to Rogdiani and Katharokastania cultivars.

Signatures of local adaptation to climate in natural populations of sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) from southern Europe

Simone Castellana et al.

Summary: Understanding the relationship between genetic variability and environmental variables in natural Castanea sativa populations is crucial for the survival of forest species in a changing climate. The study used a landscape genomics approach to uncover how different climate scenarios drove local adaption processes and provided valuable data for future species management.
