This document outlines objectives and approaches for identifying and characterizing quantitative trait loci (QTL) for fruit quality traits and disease resistance in apple and peach through a pedigree-based approach. The goals are to clarify the genetics underlying important traits, identify linked molecular markers, discover new QTLs, fine-map known QTLs, and establish a basis for marker-assisted breeding. The project will analyze multiple breeding families using statistical genetics software and SNP genotyping arrays to map QTLs for traits like taste, firmness, sugar content, and resistance to diseases. Results will provide insights into the genetics of these traits and identify molecular markers for use in breeding programs.
